Richard isn’t the sharpest tool in the social media box, you might remember his name from the Twitter storm where he inadvertently confirmed the new Defender interior was genuine

It looks like the New Defender has a problem with its rear suspension or the front suspension is at off road height.... as it looks to be sitting lower at the rear than it should - unless there is a secret rear lowering device to making loading into the “boot” easier or for hooking up trailers. It may be an illusion as well but the roof line also looks like it is sloping like an Evoque’s 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! |

It will be like the disco and Range Rover where you can kneel the backend for loading.
It looks stunning, saw one on the road the other day - a lot of road presence and in the mirror in foul weather recognisable as defender. 110 MY23.5 X Dynamic HSE RR MY23 HSE PHEV D5 MY19 HSE - Now Sold D4 MY16 HSE Luxury - Now Sold D4 MY12 HSE - Gone D3 MY06 S - Gone but not forgotten |

As a Disco 6 it may look stunning, and Discovery owners seem to like it.
However, it would appear that most Defender owners do not. Was it truly beyond the wit of McGovern to produce something that would unite us, rather than divide us? |

It's nose up on a hill. The 90 is suffering the same but is less obvious due to the much shorter wheelbase. Darren 110 USW BUILD THREAD - EXPEDITION TRAILER - 200tdi 90 BUILD THREAD - SANKEY TRAILER - IG@landroveranorak "You came in that thing? You're braver than I thought!" - Princess Leia |

Looking good 👍. The tires seem kinda small though.
