FoMoCo obviously see the new Defender as a strong competitor for the Bronco. Defender 90XS SW

From what I've seen of the new one I like it more than the new Def, perhaps equally to the Wrangler but I think I like the Jeep more.

Either way, it's interesting to see how it turns out.
If only Ford UK were as good as Ford USA.. No Guts, No Glory.

custom90steve - oh, amen to that! Ford UK is just terrible! I've contacted them twice in the past few months and both times they have been awful. I first asked if there will be an EV Transit Connect - they said they don't know, and to ask my dealer. Then I asked them if we will be getting the Bronco - they said they don't know, and to ask my dealer. I asked my dealer and they said they couldn't understand why Ford was pointing them their way. The dealer said that this is purely a Ford issue and nothing to do with dealers. I went back to Ford, and they just don't care. So it looks like I'm buying the EV version of the VW Caddy or Renault Kangoo (for work) and a Jeep Wrangler! There's two sales missed out on! Now left.

When I lived in the US I had a Bronco like the ones in that video, hard top and black. It was great, thinking about it I actually preferred it to my Defender 😞 2.4TDCI 90 - everyday brilliance

S3 lightweight - 2nd car 24V fire risk with a full tilt and the windscreen down
S1 80" - first car fun - 75mph in neutral downhill once #wobblesallround

Sad I'm afraid that it looks like the Bronco isn't coming here...or Japan, or Australia, or South Africa, or India. When you Google it, there seems to be a fair few number of statements from Ford that they won't be making a right-hand drive version. I hope that's wrong, as I'm definitely interested. I was going for a Wrangler, but £50,000 put me off. I definitely wouldn't go for a Defender! Rolling Eyes Now left.

This is the Sport, though, not the Bronco. The Sport may well come here to the UK. Now left.

But it could be a hoax pic by Ford. I hope so. The four door looks good, but the 2 door looks awful. Now left.

We owned a Bronco many years ago, 1985 XLT, two tone yellow/white, 351 Cleveland V8, C6 auto, 9", air cond, dual exhausts etc, an absolute ripper machine, pretty heavy on the juice though, went through its 121L tank capacity in no time!

Enjoyed the video about the Bronco Sport. It will be interesting to see a production model rather than just a pre-production and of course even more interesting to see the full fat Bronco when that is finally released. Thanks for sharing. Defender 90XS SW

markb110, that image of the Bronco on the front of the mag is only the "small" Bronco,....we had the later, full sized edition!
Gotta love a V8, Pickles.
