from 14-15 september there is a big defender event on the beach in belgium and they are going to show the new defender there to the belgium public. heard this from a friend who works at experience Thumbs Up


Just checked out that event. Pretty costly to register at €495,- per Defender and two occupants. For a luxury breakfast and VIP dinner, plus the chance to drive your truck on salty beaches. Shocked Rolling Eyes
Might well be in Belgium around that time, but will give this event a miss.
Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

That's probably because the new "Defender" is conceptually much closer to a Discovery than it is to the "old" Defender, and therefore has a considerable appeal to that market sector.

It certainly should appeal to that sector since it has been designed to do so, only by being untrue to its roots will it sell in sufficient numbers.

Wow, a 79 (and going) pages thread on the new Defender on Martin’s Disco4 forum. Seems more actively discussed there than here on Def2. Impressive.
Eric


They also seem a bit more open minded to it too.

The biggest issue for me is that the entry point price does look as though it's going to start around £40K which is going to rule it out for many, that's a shame because I like what I can see so far. 2015 Defender 90XS HT

I wonder if the 90 might come in a 4 door version as well. Out of the dimensions spec.it seems that it would be bigger than the current 90. Very close to the Range Rover Evoque in fact -99 Td5 90 CSW

October remains the current plan. Will be big web based media event like already done for Velar and later launches. JLR are not participating at any of the major car shows anymore as too costly.

Burgleigh is a huge sponsorship event for Land Rover. Surely they wont just have the camouflaged Defenders on show!!. The event is also streamed on BBC TV

Fingers crossed but I reckon the new Defender will be there on show
