The demise of the British Empire....

I guess it was found impossible to install on a Defender a system which automatically closes the windows and fresh air vents and engages the central locking system, while an oxygen supply provides breathable air.
And also no solution to add to the Defender anti-terrorist devices such as a remote ignition which enables the engine to be started from 150 yards if it is suspected that explosives have been hooked to the starter system. And worst of all LR as a Defender option do not offer an “anti-kidnap” remote locking mechanism that allows the rear door to be locked and unlocked remotely by the police, making it impossible for Charles and Camilla to be trapped inside.
Actually some of the above seem to come standard with some of our Defenders if I read thru the threads on Def2.net Whistle Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

perhaps it should be fitted with a 2 way radio to the met traffic department to ensure they don't end up needing all the gadgets in the first place! Whistle


didn't barracks beast get caught on a ramp or security bollard?

"distinguishes fires" that's a new way to use that word. Perhaps it only puts out special ones, not the mundane like I have.
