Pretty sure that's how everyone described the 1972 Range Rover... The 1987 Range Rover... And so on. Don't you get that ostentatious, needlessly complex, and expensive IS their brand image that has been consistent for the past 30 years?

To add to that... 1997 Defender 90 MSRP: $34k 1997 Jeep Wrangler Sport/4.0 MSRP: $17k What would make anyone think that the "next Defender" would ever compete with the JK?

So on point. And what is there to even complain about with Land Rover? They are building world class 4x4s and proving them by putting them through the historical challenges that comprise their heritage (Great Divide Expedition). While simultaneously smashing sales records. Making billions in...

Let's do a case study here. OR Which one is more of a departure from the brand's history?

Pretty sad thread. Rover people shooting down their own brand and Jeep people coming in here carrying the flag to victory.

It is glued in just like a windshield (and the third brake light assy...)

Indeed. On a more positive note Jason, I found some old photos of your Series from the LR 50th anniversary event at Greek Peak NY the other day. Will have to scan them in and send them off to you.

Zack, what happened that he couldnt drive it?

You can tint it more. Find a good shop that uses the 3M UV blocking stuff and tint it down to like 5 or 10%. It will still have an "open air" feeling on the inside but will really cut out the heat. It would probably cost about 125 bucks to have it done by a pro.

The recent trend of crapping on Land Rover as a brand and their newer products as vehicles is becoming pretty obnoxious in this forum.

That's a shame. How do you substantiate this fear? I have yet to hear of an LR3 leaving someone stranded, dying of dehydration in Death Valley, even though many would have you believe they are prone to do so.

In fairness, I do not think that Mercedes provides all parts for all models going back indefinitely. Mechanical parts I would imagine they have good coverage on, but if you call your local Benz dealer and ask for a headliner or kick panel or dashboard assembly for a 1981 500SL I don't think...

This is an NAS Range Rover. Anybody seen it before?

So awesome.

You guys are leaving out the fact that the company is making more money than ever. Literally smashing records. So they should just stop, fall on their sword, and choose to go bankrupt (again) by producing leaky, slow, narrow market appeal 4x4s? Give me a break. I love the vintage models as...
