    The year earlier or so for the new Defenders might be able to tempt me out of the D3 unless it is too pretty. New Defender project begins | Autocar

    I just want to point out to people on this forum, that I, Lotz-A-Landies, moderator to the series, was the first to announce, back in February the project codename for the next Defender L660 as confirmed by the above article!

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    I'm just glad that under the new owners, Land Rover is getting support and funding to develop new models. My contacts at Solihull say its a breath of fresh air after decades and a succession of owners who starved the company.

    Even if they are Indian!

    I'm guessing by that article that they're saying that there will be an underpowered, manual hose out variant with 17" rims and no technology for $115,000.

    That sketch of the defended looks very much like an updated D2.

    Cheers
