Do you have to ask? Their employees are the type that are surprised to find larger tires improve off-road performance.

I bet you still believe airbag pressure is modulated dynamically. Still waiting on that documentation. You also seem to think my avatar is from CT. Amazing. No I won't be sending you pics and meeting up in the woods. I'm not really into the fake engineer type.

Now that we’ve seen these Barbie-cars fail at off-roading, check out one going into limp-mode 10 miles from the dealer.

FTFY

Did I miss something? Is the LC300 out?

Of course it was. It's the closest thing we have to a new Defender. https://www.motor1.com/news/424754/jeep-wrangler-land-rover-defender/ The 80s and 90s would beg to differ.

I believe LR made a product for that.. what was it called again?

You're right, the luxury Defender performs great if you don't compare it to other vehicles.

Well, at least it drives nice. I see the JLR apologists are out in force. Carry on boys.

Land Yacht would have been more fitting.

Yes, but the 200 wouldn't be a HD LC. People that want a HD LC don't want a wagon, just as people who want a modern classic Defender (akin to the HD LC series), don't want a wagon Defender. Further, it seem the LC wagon series is actually most akin to the Discovery series. Both are wagon body...

You mean luxury candles? The light sources that claim to last 20 years but the drivers burn out in 1?

Many of the criticisms myself and others brought up covered here by TFL and Scott Brady. For example, and as I expected, it turns out that on the Namibia safari, apparently vehicles with 19" wheels experienced several punctures while those with 18" did not.

Did not claim they were "worthy", only proven. Never claimed any bolted on bits seen were necessary, and several had none. You can do that to any platform.

Your complaints about Jeep road handling made the impression that you overplay the importance of it in the context of overland travel. I never claimed there is "no value to comfort or ride quality", but that we should be more realistic in our expectations. Jeeps and other coil/leaf vehicles have...

Not even close. That was a refute to the ridiculous claim that one must drive a luxury brand to prevent driver fatigue while overlanding. Countless individuals have been traveling the world for decades without such BS, hence the images.

Quote me where I advised you expo-farkle your jalopy. Good luck.

It does appear the article is primarily in reference to the Jaguar side of JLR, but doesn't explicitly exclude LR. We've seen the China-centric "bolder" design language before. If so, the next Defender might look like this.

That's all you had to say buddy.
