New Land Rover Defender

Only this one for now...



This was shortly before the AA truck collected me on the way home from picking it up (for the second time). This is going to require patience I can see.

 

.....and a damn good tool box kit.

 

With lots of obscure or obsolete spanner sizes!

 

Probably you can pick them up at boot sale or auto jumble fair for sure.

 

Just over 70,000 units projected sales year 1

 

Hot adjustable spanner will do nicely

 

At least the HiLux will be reliable...

 

And mostly to gullible Americans, Cheshire WAG's and Chelsea yummy mummies...

 

Don’t forget end of the world/Special Forces wannabes too.

 

Great product placement back in the day.

 

Or one of these, if they make it into production.

Could turn out to be the 4 wheeled equivalent of the Norton esq venture. I’ll get me coat.

 

Quote from Land Rover enthusiast - it will make the waiting list for the new Jimny longer....

 

My thoughts entirely. It's a real shame that the Jimny supply chain into Europe is so restricted even if they get another factory going (without the hybrid hitting EU market they are limited to how many they can sell without being fined 6000€ per vehicle for being over average emissions across their range). I bet Suzuki are kicking themselves.

 

fugging great, a more complex defender. which means i am gonna have more complex ramblings from a fortune teller who will back up her inner eye with more complex drawings.
long story but, i have a new customer who is a soothsayer. i wonder if she has predicted she is gonna be an ex customer any day now.

 

they are not actually. you also have to factor in the customers responce to the bill on an older vehicle.

 

New ones all off-board diagnostics?

 

As seen today in Fitou...
