Thread: Won’t be retro...

The hydro bushes in D3/4/RRS appear to have been a wear item well below 100,oookm

Are the control arm bushes in the newer LR any different?

Combined with service items like nutz expensive ATF ongoing costs of a new LR product is not inconsequential

Hopefully along the lines of LC200

Looks like still some slight boxing camo front and sides

On that note I don't think I would ever carry anything more than 75 kg on the roof + rack itself.

So looking again at all those information slides with all the specs, it appears I won't be able to have a 90. Seems they are for the "Young and Affluent".
What about the Old and Effluent?

More ring shots, high res

Probably our best look yet at the Urban Version, looks like its the straight 6 based on the dual exhaust.

2020 Land Rover Defender Spied Leaning Through The Nurburgring

those exhausts look theyre coming out of a transverse muffler with 2 outlets

theyre black, not indictative of a modern 6cyl petrol engine

more likely a diesel by the pipe colour

The camouflaged Defender will appear at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, which is running from July 4-7.

Some handy goodwood links i found..i just downloaded the app which you can set reminders in for events to watch.

EDIT: Looks like defender will be in the first glance batches twice daily as per pic below.

Maybe, but my comments are based on the ring vids showing straight 6 with same exhaust which look just as black.

4cyl versions have been seen with muffler to one side with outlets on one side.

2007 D3, first lower control arm bushes were replaced at about 150K with oem lower control arms, they were definitely past their use by date and were rattling. The replacements lasted until the vehicle was disposed of with ~270K on it and were still good. I suspect that the bush material had improved from the first edition. Vehicle was used extensively off road and on fast gravel.
