On a more serious note, I'm very tempted to buy on of the last ones. I've never felt inclined to buy my own new car before but this could well be the exception. Darren

LRA with the constant delaying of the demise of the Defender in it's current format I wonder how many people have already felt compelled to buy and have already done so for the same reasoning as your post above? If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Not sure. With no replacement immediately available I also wonder how many might now decide to buy one of the last? Darren

It would be f*ing epic if LR made a 'final hoorah' for the defender...

Unique colour, wheels etc and tdv6 engine and auto box would do it for me!

Hopefully at least some special edition will be released which will no doubt be incredibly sought after as 'the last defender' Cheers, David

There's no way they'll fit a different engine - too many regulations. There are lots of other things they could do, of course, although I'd be happy if they could just screw it together properly Laughing Darren
