Oh dear...
&t=1s

Looks like JLR is advertising and likening the new defender to a 'smart phone'...

What a tragedy this is... YOLO... You Only Live Once...

If they couldn't apply paint properly to the old model, then I've no confidence in this new stuff working.

I’m sure folks remember what happened when TG “Road tested” the LR branded tough smartphone........... Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

No, you just take it to the nearest Apple store and they’ll replace the screen for you. Whistle You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.
