What does everybody think?

I quite like it, especially if they fit the TDV8 for a limited edition launch model....

why only as a limited edition:rolleyes: :mad:
even the d3 tdv6 would be a good choice
 
the 3.0 TDV6 would be an awesome engine for it as well as the tdv8. They can get 56mpg out of it in the Jag XF with 0-60 at 6 seconds. So if they can get around 30 mpg from it in the next 'fender wouldn't that be smashin'?

Indeed but I think it will be impossible to meet modern demands without all the ECU's and such. Aren't they making it a requirement soon that all new production cars should have traction control? think they are doing that in the US

traction control is just a marketing tool.not a mandate. a slip lock would be far better addition along with auto and better cooling system

That's why I'm sticking with my 300Tdi, I can fix it with a bag of spanners. I'm in the motor trade and cars less than 10 years old are getting scrapped cos it'll cost too much to fix em, bloody disgrace. :mad:

LR needs the north American market to survive. Plus you got to follow the EU auto standards.
They are fine the way they are with me:)

A land rover that looks like a defender so will do what it says on the tin.

Put me down for one.

They won't do a v8 version. It'll never run
