[QUOTE="dave mountain, post: 7114198, member: 148078"] I dont like it. If you were buying for heavy commercial use you would need to be mad to buy a commercial defender over a amarok, commercial landcruiser (3-4k less than an amarok for a lwb) or the 2.8 hilux when it comes out next year. These are all proven ladder chassis vehicles, with proven engines, suspension and running gear. Toyota pattern parts will be much cheaper and more readily available than those for the new defender as they sell roughly 1 million 4x4s per year. If it isnt for work then its just personal preference the same as anything else, but id much rather spend 50k on a 2015 v8 landcruiser, which will still outlast and outwork any brand new JLR vehicle. There is a reason that a used range rover/discovery is so much cheaper than a similar landcruiser, and the new defender will likely be the same. [/QUOTE]
