If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

I'd have one if I had a spare half million knocking around. I suspect that all the headline items in the video like the HUD don't come with the "poverty spec." £40k model though, and you need to lay out nearer to the £80k :S

Looks a great replacement for the Disco. I can see the new Def seriously cannibalising sales of the Disco5, which has a, ummmm, 'challenging' appearance
I think much of the dislike for the new Defender is based on it sitting in a completely different market segment than the old model, rather than any particular dislike for the car itself.

This new Defender does look good, but is clearly just a Discovery 4 replacement and aimed at the market that LR entered in 1989 with the original Discovery. It's only a Defender in name.

Personally I don't think it could be much further from the Jimny. Which is a bit of a shame really.Reason2doubt wrote:
The little one struck me as a much more expensive version of the new Gen4 Jimny
