    New Defender add

    The following 2 photos are the back page of last week's Land magazine. All except the 90 ? Should make a few people happy!

    The latest LROC magazine mentions why. ADRs specify that vehicles under a certain GVM must have airbags. The 90 is underweight.

    Correct. Might have been payload not GVM, but it's one of the two, I forget which.

    It is not, as some may say, an odd conspiracy theory by LRA to deprive people of the 90.

    Incredibly, rules have changed in the years since the TD5 90s were imported.

    Exactly. Why are they advertising in "The Land" when none of the readers live anywhere near a dealership?

    Just received our first new model, a 110 HCPU .


    And it looks like I have to spend a few hours driving these new Defenders off road in a couple of weeks.
    I don't know if I can stoop that low after driving Range Rovers .
