    hahaha, what a funny looking thing. Just need 11 inch mag wheels for it and your set. I'm interested in knowing the specs though. I think it would be ideal to get to shops and back. Pitty it won't be able to come here.

    Actually maybe L.R. will do a deal that for every Def. 130 you buy you get to take one of these home with you, just chuck it on the tray and off you go.

    Just wonder if it is going to be as "reliable" as the Tata ute ?
    They should start making the Land Rover series I again. That should bring the price done compared with the Defender and will be a top 4WD
    The original plans should be some were so they do not need invest in R&D

    What a heap, if you farted in it you blow all the windows out!, too tight **** to put hub caps on it? what do you expect for 2800, you probably have to wind the rubber band up every time you go for a drive

    Nah probably like a Flintsones car, No floor.

    You'd be sure of the build quality at that price wouldnt you lol

    I recon a coil sprung 80" series 1 running a small turbo diesel and in soft top would be damn cheap for them to build.

    I suppose we could all just go buy 90's but it just wouldnt be the same.

    Reminiscent of the first Series 1's which didnt come with a spare tyre, doors or passenger seats - all were options!
