2015 Defender won’t look like the DC100 after all
Been quiet for a while on DC100 front, this article sounds like a change of tack may have taken place...

I just hope the Defender replacement has more load carrying capability, more people room inside and to me the most important , they retain the excellent over bonnet visibility and command driving position , some thing the DC100 clearly does not have !!! Question

Very interesting! I thought I'd read somewhere the Defender we all know and love would now carry on until 2017 rather than 2015, or was I just dreaming (quite possible!!)

Cheers Thumbs Up

The amazing thing about the Defender is, even if you are going a mile up the road to buy a loaf of bread, the trip is an experience , feels like you are heading off on a safari across some desert some where , or half pie expecting a lion or tiger to jump on the bonnet !!!!!! Question is can Land Rover replicate this feel good factor ???? OK I dont need the squeaks, rattles and leaks that my 2 year old puma was born with , but looking past its short comings , its super kool in a utility way , not kool in a pretentious way like the evoque or the DC100 is. Hope Jerry can understand this Question Question
