    Whinge?

    I think the D5(?) will be too late in coming. I have a 2011 D4 and want to upgrade to the "new" vehicle in 2015. I have to wait until 2017 maybe? That'll make the D4 era what, 8 years?

    Looks like a Disco Sport in the interim...........

    Some of us don't buy them until they're 8 years old, so the longer the model cycle the better, we look current for a year or two then

    I must also admit, it's growing on me.....love some of features, cringe at others (but maybe time will convince me that those doors and tailgate will all be fine)...any way a few more years to wait.

    It will be interesting to see the new Defender, chances are if I like it then I bet the current diehard Fender brigade will hate it. That on its own will gives me some sort of perverse pleasure. ...
    Cheers,

    I'm betting the TDV6 2.7 (or 3.0 if dropped from discovery range) with 6 speed auto will find its way into the new defender.
