[QUOTE="dave mountain, post: 7114263, member: 148078"] They do have the job sewn up globally, hence around 1 million 4x4 sales per year, just not in the uk where more people buy on personal preference than actual quality/reliability/longevity. Having said that there are lots of other decent options like amarok, isuzu etc. I could be wrong on the residuals, but as it is essentially a new JLR vehicle, probably closest to the discovery, and has no connection to the old defender, i dont see why the new defender will have any better residuals than the new discovery, range rover etc, which are not particularly strong, especially when you consider that they are a much more expensive vehicle to buy in the first place. Same goes for reliability and parts prices. Old defender parts prices were broadly similar to equivalent toyota parts, however that is not true of discoveries/range rovers (far more expensive) and so why would it be true for the new defender? Hope that answers your question [/QUOTE]
