OHS will never allow them!

Given what we 'know' or can conjecture about the new Defender, I can't help thinking that once this Defender is released, it will gobble sales from potential D5 buyers. What will be the key model differentiator for people to spend the extra $ to go for D5 , assuming it will be extra?
I was looking around the dealer showroom last month while my car was being serviced, they had a demo D5 there with lots of options , going for $140k. (not that I am in the market at the moment) but for that much I could have bought a new RRS SE with Dynamic and had some change. So, I am thinking at the top end D5 are likely getting gobbled by RRS sales, and soon enough the lower and mid $ will be gobbled by defender.
Will there perhaps be more 'comfort' in a D5 than Defender? maybe, then maybe not.... thoughts?
