    Should have called that a Freelander and continued the Defender with styling as is - there will always be a market for the (old style) Defender

    The problem is regulations.. passenger and pedestrian protection, noise levels etc, etc..

    Well it held out longer than most before they turned it gay, ( Not that there is anything wrong with that). RIP defender.
