    How would you spec the new defender?

    Just got the update from my dealer today that I need to go non-refundable on my deposit and confirm my final build spec, targeted shipment in July. I know how to spec, but I would love to hear if anyone has seen or can share images of what the khaki grain interior option looks like? I'd prefer...

    Has anyone heard when the 'dealer trainings' and road shows are occurring in the US? I keep being told 'sometime in January' but haven't heard anything else.

    Who ordered a New Defender ?

    Tasman with the white roof is currently sitting in my build I just sent off to dealer...really torn b/n that and the Silver with black. I like the Pangea, wish it was a tad darker green to match the '01 Disco I had in that color!

    Who ordered a New Defender ?

    Have had a deposit down on one since May, told order window opens 10/15 where the deposit becomes non-refundable. JackW, have you seen any pictures of the underfloor storage differences on the 2 engines? That is news to me, I am leaning the 6 cyl but that could make a difference.

    '02 vs. '03 Montero...how different do they feel?

    Curious to know people's thoughts here. I know that the engine is different, and that the '03s+ have the stability control, but for those of you who know Monteros well, how noticeable is the power delivery between the 2 years in everyday driving? If you were looking for a do-everything vehicle...

    What to look for on test drive of used Montero's

    Thank you both for the replies. So if the 4x4 lights are flashing, I'm assuming that means an error? If they are solid, that means 4 wheel drive is operable/working ok? Vehicle will be mostly used for backcountry roads, no rock crawling, more for a rig to get to and from trailheads for...

    What to look for on test drive of used Montero's

    I'm in the market for a cheap used ride, looking at 96-01 Monteros. I'll be looking at a few vehicles this weekend, and curious to ask the experts here about what general items to look for when "kicking tires" on the Monteros? I won't be able to take a deep dive on the truck, just looking for...
