If you read through the issues people are having on the D4/RRS forums, most are mechanical as well, other than a fiddly/slow touchscreen for the SatNav.
And a crank is not electronic either [emoji39]
My 2008 L322 is without doubt better on the beach than my Perentie. The L322 gives me a 2” lift at the press of a button. The L322 is a much better tourer and not had an electrical issue in the L322 I couldn’t solve myself. I’ve had more electrical issues on the 110 which were fairly minor and not show stoppers with a little knowledge.
And the Perentie is turboed with a front trutrack.
I’ve replaced the gearbox/trans in both.

Here we go again
The key question, of course, is how much will the new one look like the old one?
"It will be, has to be, a different kind of vehicle," said Woolley, "but still true to the Defender and Defender principles."
In*Detroit*in January,*Mercedes-Benzdrew attention with its own iconic off-roader, unveiling a new*G-Class. Visually, it did not differ much from the outgoing G-Class.
"I tried analyzing it to see what was new," said Woolley. "Every panel on the car is new, but it looks very similar to the previous one. I guess one thing I wish was that we were showing the Defender at the same time [as the new G-Class]. That would have been good. I think that the Defender will, you know, push it in the shade."
What will next Defender look like?
First, and most important: McGovern said the design work is complete. Now it is the job of Land Rover engineers to take McGovern's vision for the next Defender and make sure it lives up to -- and perhaps exceeds -- the original. He says Land Rover engineers are "hellbent" on doing just that.
Land Rover design chief dangles more clues on next Defender
This pic is the only visual indication JLR have given on what the new Defender will look like.
And the 2 door Rangie on the left has just been relesed and looks pretty much identical to outline, the disco also matches outline, guess what the defender will also do.https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/im...018/03/392.jpg

Straight mid-line, squared off front, and is that an external spare tyre on the back? [bighmmm]
Best clues we've had yet! [biggrin]
Is WHAT an external spare tyre on the back?
I've enlarged the pic and can see no indication of it. Anybody else see what I can't?
