He's a legend. Might convert him to Defenders.
I for one am a bit excited about the new defender...
These are positives to me;
1. Its not a rush job - LR are doing the defender replacement project seriously... it would have sucked massively if they adhocly made some horrible retro body and chucked it on a disco base or something.
2. They seem serious about offroad capability... they're not at Moab just to get a photo of it there.. they're avoiding photographers.. they are testing it.. its not like "here's our new Honda CRV with Moab in the background"
3. 18" rims seem to be a possibility on some models at least
4. More on the offroad capability.. sure there are some things that some don't like - like those radiators leading the front wheels, lack of solid floating axles etc.. but things like recovery points and approach angles etc give me hope that the designers aren't creating something that will easily rip a bit of plastic when climbing over rocks.. and a bit of hope that it'll allow for 3rd party equipping like bars, winches, snorkels etc...
5. The apparently body roll at the Nubrhbhbhbhbbbbring is a good sign!
Just hope I can afford one!
Whats the under/over that a 4WD mag takes it for a test drive once released up the Cape and Royally pooches it in Nolan’s and thereby declares it is junk ala D3 style???

If the RRS, RRVogue and D5 (1meter wading unofficial, 900m official) is anything to go by they will be sweet. Labryinth bonnet [emoji41]Quote:

Yeah lots wrong in that article imoQuote:
