Glad you can afford a minimum of £40k.

I can't, I'm planning ahead for when they come onto the second hand market. Have tried to warrant putting through the company but don't do enough annual business miles and I can't bring myself to buy a new car on these PCP contracts as it's just ****ing away hard earned cash + paying interest + continued devaluation on an ever decreasing 'asset'. I'm quite old fashioned when it comes to money. Don't buy something unless you can afford to and never pay full price for anything. I wouldn't sleep knowing I've borrowed money for a car, especially when one can buy some amazing cars for not too much money...read, Jaguar XKR's for £20k [lovely and very tempted]

The problem is when they get to the used market, that is when all the expensive repairs will need doing, and I hate to think what the repair bills will be on those things.
 
Even if I had the money, I'd always wait and get a 2nd gen or facelift version. That way hopefully all the teething troubles will get sorted.
I quite like the look of the new defender but it so different it should be renamed .
 
Hopefully getting to look around one at the dealership end of the month. I’m mainly going for the free crisps but will be interesting to see. Where did you see one?
Eye was on a visit at lr earlier this year but cant give too much away.

Free crisps? At the LR dealer near me there’s a full complement of treats including various cakes, shortbread, biscuits and sundry nibbles
