I ran my d2 like that for years, sometimes threw the rear seats in ...took 15-20mins....and if I wantted the rear space again , took the seats out.I did it at least twice each year for my regular desert trips.

From its wide-spaced double-wishbone design at the front to its advanced multi-link layout at the rear, the Discovery Commercial’s suspension delivers more responsive handling without compromising Land Rover’s hallmark all-terrain capability and makes all journeys confident, comfortable and engaging.
Pretty much like a commercial van interior in rear, with luxury front and go anywhere capability.

I wonder if air will be an option.
Would be nice if there was an option, as I am gathering they want to sell as many of these as possible to make it economically viable. My thinking is that if the D5 can come with coils, then the Defender will most likely come with an air option as that would be a missed opportunity. By not offering air they might limit their potential sales in some markets, like the USA where they like their creature comforts. Heaven knows that Land Rover love you paying for every option anyway!
