I reckon there's a fair bit of light-hearted, good-natured Aussie ****-taking going on too. [thumbsupbig]

2019 Land Rover Defender spied

Some photos.

End of the road: a look back at the Land Rover Defender

I doubt the body is the actual Defender but just a 'mule' like what Land Rover did with the Freelander 1.

There's also the SD5:

In-house designs : Rover SD5 - AROnline

The photos are meaningless but the crux of the matter isthis -

chief creative officer Gerry McGovern told an Australian publication that the new Defender, which is definitely coming, would be "polarizing" and that Defender die-hards might not get the visual link to the past they're hoping for.

Which means it won't be boxy and practical...

BUT I'll be happy as long as they somehow avoid the uselessly impractical 'squashed rear roofline" look that plagues other current models....

Oh and based on the other main LR trend I think we can assume it will be SUBSTANTIALLY more expensive than the previous model Deefer. I can imagine around $80K... and possibly with no ute version.

Time will tell.

I love my Tdi 130 [thumbsupbig]
