l've got an original Defender and a Jimny. They are both great working vehicles, the new Defender is great but it's not a Defender, if only Suzuki had made the Jimny 25% larger!

Thankfully only a very small minority of Gen4s have been pimped in the same way. The fact that it's a tiny car means that the over-compensating crowd aren't interested in the first place, after all what's the point in having a 4x4 if you can't loom threateningly 6 inches from someone's back bumper at 80mph in the outside lane?X8GGY wrote: Before we start throwing stones in our glasshouse...
Isn't the Gen4 going the same way?...

I'm not so sure.. Yes in a sense that the Gen.4 SZ5 has some impressive bells and whistles for it's price point, but ultimately the Gen.4's principle design is a barebones body on frame 4x4. Had JLR released a new defender that featured 21st centry bells and whistles, but remained structually and mechanically true to its roots, it would be an absolute game changer.....
