Covered 1100+miles this week in the Defender, brilliant on the motorway & threading through the Cornish lanes. Everyday someone stopped to chat, smile & wave or take a picture of it. Definitely captures the Defender spirit.

Hey @theragers, this tyke’s nabbed your lovely #NewDefender! I’d grab the keys off him but I didn’t bring my stepladder. Tempted to let him off though, because he completed this cracking @LandRover ‘through the ages’ shot yesterday 👌 #Defender2020 #LandRover https://t.co/fZcYPcup4E https://twitter.com/AlexBescoby/status/1288762773560872960?s=20

No, there is no step in the 2020 roof and the roof rail tracks run right to the front of the roof on 2020/ L663 Defender, could it be a D3 or D4? Epsom Green Tdi300 County Hard Top converted into a Station Wagon

Read to the end of this litany of RNLI call outs in the North of Scotland this weekend. I think some members from here are up that way at the moment doing the NC500, They missed out on a salvage payment
