New Land Rover Defender

[NEOCON1]

damn steering-wheel is on the wrong side

Cool rig, but I'm not going to drive that thing as a daily driver like I do the H3.

They feel like you are driving a moving van. I still want one though.

I thought the new freelander is next before anything else in the LR line?
nothing says FU then a Rover, worse then Hummer, lot of leaf lovers seem to give them a pass over us?

I really like how the rear seats fold sideways.

I might be wrong, but I think all it needs to be ready for the US would be airbags and emmisions. I thought the EU would have worse emmissions laws than dumbas$$ California.

Land Rover is working hard with the US to bring the V6 TDi and V8TT diesel to the US. I doubt a defender will have the V8TT. A USA Defender could easily have the same 4.0 or 4.4 that comes in a LR3, or hell, even the Inline six of an LR2 would do good.

Yes LR2 (replacement for Freelander and still called Freelander in Europe) is hitting dealers now.

My favorite Range Rover currently is the RR Sport supercharged. It weights 6000 pounds, has 400 hp, and sucks premium gas like it's free. Most tree-huggers don't even notice it.

this is how it should be
