I'm still holding out hope that LR will introduce a model just for us "traditional types ".....
with out all the electronic bs. I know that there is a market for the range rover stuff..but even the LR3 & LR4 are a little too plush for my taste.

i agree, a factory-made, bare bones LR3 with solid axles and front and rear lockers would be damn sweet. go ahead and add a soft top.

that would be a whole new market.

I can see a newer version of the defender coming back. Look at what all of the muscle cars and ever Toyota is doing. I hope LR goes back classic with one of their trucks. Ditch the LR2 and make an affordable trail rig.
