So after 2015, no more Defenders.

I know they will still be around forever BUT if you were in the market for A NEW 4x4 and you could not get a Defender, what would you get?

bankz5152 · Oct 22, 2013

Disco or a Range Rover.

Thor1950 · Oct 22, 2013

Only thing close would be the jeep wrangler line both have a 90,and 110 similar model. 3.6 v6 factory LSD front and rear with 5 speed manual or auto getting equal MPG (maybe a bit more) as td5, puma's . Hard tops and soft tops. And there are 5.7 and 6.0 hemi versions out the with 425HP+ and factory warranty

Jonnyb1990 · Oct 22, 2013

Probably a Mitsubishi L200 or something similar

A merc g wagon

defender11069 · Oct 22, 2013

defender11069 · Oct 22, 2013

Croft90 · Oct 22, 2013

Toyota Landcruiser 76,78 or 79.

Shame they don't sell them over here!

Rawly86 · Oct 22, 2013

Hilux or VW Amarok

bankz5152 · Oct 22, 2013

Thor takes it. I change mine to a Wrangler...

natas · Oct 22, 2013

I think if I had to go with a NEW 4x4 it would be a diesel Toyota Hilux.

THEengineer · Oct 22, 2013

would not bother,new box,new 300 tdi,new galv bulkhead and chassis,save 20k fenders good to go for another 30+ years

GINGE · Oct 22, 2013

Yep.

Id rebuild mine i think If my numbers come up im getting a disco 4 HSE though :5bdrool5:

Landyjd · Oct 23, 2013

If it had to be a new 4WD then I would go for a Discovery 4 diesel, then add some ARB bumpers etc. for off-roading.

Not really comparable in price to a Defender though...

Bayden_uk · Oct 23, 2013

Me too!

defender greg 90 · Oct 24, 2013

Hilux or a showgun but seens how im rebuilding ,
My 300tdi on a galv chassis

Croft90 · Oct 24, 2013

I dont get the attractions of Hiluxes and the like.

If youre going to go for a Toyota, do it properly.

Money no option, a Pingauzer.
Mind you, money no option, I'd probably rebuild as well

.
The cost of a rebuild on a galv chassis is so low compared to anything new. You could afford a new Ashcroft box and Turner short engine and still save heaps. Drool!

Shifty1962 · Oct 24, 2013

Money no problem I'd get a full spec UniMOg like this:
Mercedes-Benz UK - Unimog - U 4000 - U 5000
