Not with that wheelbase! evidently don't have a clue about being off road...


The Defender 110 or even the 130 aren't bad off road and this thing weighs at least half a ton less. John

Defender's higher though, even when the RR is at off road suspension

FL won't have Ewok lines, it's not a Range Rover!

And it won't do 40 mpg and 0-60 in 5 seconds. The 5 litre will do the 5 seconds part, the diesel mid 30's on a run.

Spen King will be turning in his grave at this. I like the interior and I'm sure it will be phenomenal, but I'm not called Puff Diddly as Jeremy Clarkson once said. Mine: 2012 Golf GTI Edition 35

I like it Twisted Evil

Having been up close to one of the mules, which didnt seem that big, these photos do suggest that thr rear is longer? as Athelstan said 7 seat version, is it longer in practice?

Re: FFRR takes inspiration from a ............ Ford Focus!!!

I liked it till i saw this pic, it will no doubt grow on me but i just think the whole rear corner looks odd from this angle.

It will be interesting to see what happens to the residuals of the current model,
I could be tempted to part with some hard earned if theres some good deals on current FFRR's.
