Defending an icon ?
What do we see in the new LandRover Defender? Lot’s of trademark McG-isms …random grilles; chunky metallic-look front and rear vallance plates; even bigger pens used to define edges; headlights that look like they can see round corners from their massive chamfers. And a few new touches like that blanked-out side window. I guess a purchase price of a mere £44k+ means that saving glass is important. Nevertheless it looks like a LandRover, it will overcome contours and anything else in its way like a LandRover, so thumbs up….it IS a real Land Rover. Nice one. “Tough but approachable”, they say in the press blurb. Is that you or the car, Gerry ?
