Yes, indeed I was referring to the TD5 one. Does what it's there for: cools down the car and humans nicely. I was surprised at how effective it was, after all the jokes you get about it.

Just driven my 01 TD5 to Spain.

i would liken the aircon to a genteel old lady, sucking an ice cube blowing through a straw

Much prefer the td5 aircon over the puma aircon. But the heaters are better in the puma.
Maybe they will combine the best bits for defender3

Ah yes, combine all the best bits of all Landies. Puma heater, power, torque, quietness and 6th gear. Sound of a TD5 (or the V8 as an option if that's how you swing). Return to more aluminium panels. Galvanised bits and bobs from Series Landies. Return of the vents. Metal dashboard with easy maintenance access to everything (TDi or TD5 era dash if we must). Engine reliability and maintenance of TDi...

What a dream that would be. I'd sell my kidney to get one!
