    Good to see,as the 110 is quite small in the load area, one reason we didnt go with it.

    No doubt the 130 will command a huge price increase over the 110.

    Same wheelbase as the110? That'll make for some interesting departure angles.

    Does anyone drive them off-road anyway apart from the motoring journalists?

    Good point, but one day someone may want to replace their D4 or REAL 130. I guess Toyota will still be making something like the 7X series. Or Ineos may be successful.

    No mention of Aus in that list - wonder if this is something to compete with the Escalade style vehicles. Limited market here?

    That said, the defender, with a D4 boot would be brilliant. Add an out-of-character split tailgate and it would be love at first sight. Couldn’t park it at Westfield though...

    Or take the spare wheel off the rear door, since that's included in the length.

    My MR Triton is 5.290m long (without tow bar). I can park it anywhere. In fact I get it more tight places than my D2 thanks to excellent turning circle, sensors all over it and 360 camera. So if they give it a good turning circle and typically these new crop of LR have all the sensors and cameras, it should be very handy (albeit wider than the Thai dual cab utes).

    Cheers
