Ireland 2011 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 CSW Stornoway Grey
still I'll bet that in 5 years time there'll be an exodus from the Puma section to the new DC100 forum on def2 leaving us Puma owners to carry on discussing leaks and clonks in our chunky knit sweaters and dried soup encrusted beards !

its SKoda Yeti in disguise Rolling with laughter

Skoda wondered who had pinched their design sketches

I think I'll stick with my Defender 90

can not see many smallholders and farmers moving bales of hay and sheep with one them

landrover/tata shoud stop trying to ruin a vehicle that has worked well with slight adjustments since 1947

If Land Rover keep listening and continue making more changes to the DC100 , in three months time we should have our first bright pink Defender2 ! Going to look appropriate in that hue !!!

Australia 2008 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 SW Stornoway Grey
It's growing on me - particularly a four door version. But then again, lately, I've been sort of admiring aspects of the Toyota FJ Cruiser from afar (and for that I sincerely apologise).

I think a new, modern 'fit for purpose' Defender (with a less toy-like quality i.e. FJ Cruiser) is doable - there's just a very fine balance between exciting and laughable.

I'm no longer worried about the current model being replaced and I'm looking forward to slapping down some money on the latest incarnation - fingers crossed LR get the 'mix' right.

Cheers and Happy NY to everyone out there.

I really want a bet bothways. I have a 2011 Puma, after the Gaylander/ Rav 4 been out a couple of years I will know if it is fit for purpose. Looks a bit plastic fantastic not unlike the Prado based FJ, they are subject to torsional twisting off road. In addition they rattle to bits with shyte falling off as you drive. There is a real market for a modern Defender, Tojo like land Rover is in decline in this area. I hope this will be not a lost opportunity. Thumbs Up
