Well, that disqualifies me from buying a new Defender 90 then..... ‘Young, Affluent, Fun Seeking, Individual' ... no doubt with pricing to suit? 😀

That DC100 looks like a Skoda Yeti  If it wasn't so bad it'd be funny.

Freelander 2 GS 2012...... Gone.

JLR are obviously trying to cater for a future population explosion with their 130  Jules

Quite right , I bought a new County 90 in 1997 with a full chequer plate job and NAS spec rear step /tow bar . It was one of the the last TDi 300 models and was discounted as the TD5 was coming in . It was over £20,000 . We were paid out £13000 on the insurance when it was stolen 14 years later ! 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

I would need to check my old brochures but I’m sure an entry level D3 with air suspension wasn’t much more expensive than a 90. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

No pickup version? I note that there are a lot of L200/Navara/Hiluxe pickups around now with chrome bars etc on the back which are obviously lifestyle vehicles. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

Brings back memories looking at that, a top of the range Disco for less than £44k. My first was a D3 base 7 seater which brought Terrain Response and air suspension, as opposed to just coils on the 5 seat, at 1 1/2 years old for £23k.

Them were the days  21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

I imagine that the Defender '130' version will spawn a double cab pickup, that necessary for many markets if you want volume sales.

There are so many of that type of vehicle in N America that their supermarket's parking spaces are normally big enough for them, and there are designated 'small car' parking spaces for what we would call normal cars. FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)

The 90 might make a nice replacement for the FL2......yes I know the differences, doors, seats, size etc......but at least it’s a bit more “Land Rovery” than the present crop of pressed steel. Regards

Lovely i6 has now gone, but not me......

Please let me know if anything in my post offends you, as I may wish to offend you again......

Interesting but seems no manual transmission option then looking at the spec sheet - it is auto across the board! Andrew

1. The 90" actually has a 90" wheelbase It goes to pot a bit after that...

2. It'll be 1,999mm wide. So, no one will be green laning those at any age then

It'll be fine....just make its own green lane  Regards
