United Kingdom 1984 Defender 110 300 Tdi DCPU Stornoway Grey
WOW.....WOW...WOW
Well I went this afternoon had a look...…………...Bloody AWESOME..... Some styling from the old one used in a certain way...The roof, Alpine windows and the rear of it shaped similar to our muched loved models. The rear lights tho been more RR than the old Mini sort.

Plenty of potential for other a commercial version but not to sure on the pick up. We only saw the 90 version with is a 5 seater, plenty of leg room behind front seats but not really a boot. The dash board has style designs from the old RED prototype at Gaydon, with a big long deep tray from dash pinnacle to passenger door. Auto box and nice touch screen in middle of dash board.

Big chunky motor, that....hopefully if we can build them right, will do us good at JLR..

Chatting to a few of the other fellas there, we reckon we should really build it at....THE HOME OF THE LEGEND... Putting Dreams on Drives at JLR Solihull..

I’m so excited just hearing from someone who has really seen it! Would you say your “Bloody Awesome” impression extends to the front end of the Defender as well? 2005 LR3 - original owner - still going strong - Great Uber for my goats and rescue vehicle for the ATVs.

Will it still be necessary to own a hair salon to drive one (like the rest of the LR range)?

Easyjet Trip to Frankfurt show if you want to see it Smile

I'm keen to see it but realistically its not on my shopping list. Keep the 110 that I have and buy a second hand full fat Range Rover is looking like my choice.


Good that a fellow old Defender driver gives it the thumbs up Thumbs Up Thumbs Up
