(heres the link http://www.cgiautomotive.com/cars/la...r-defender.htm)

The only thing I can say is WTF, over...

Choqiees · 10-31-2006, 08:28 PM

the nastiest PS job i've ever seen.

thanks for the post

....have to agree, thats a pretty fugly photo edit..and vehicle. (Cant necessarily assume that it was with photoshop

)

If something like that was produced, I doubt they would stick with the defender name. If there is a 'modern' defender, chances are it will still be boxy as hell.....just as everyone likes it.

That has got to be the worst idea, and PS I might add! ......Running to the Bathroom.......

LMAO...so Land Rover hired a 3rd Grader to do their design work? Interesting concept. Looks like a fridge with magnets bunched on it...lol

I'd rather them never bring a defender back then soccer-mom it.

If Tabrant made a truck, that is exactly what it would look like.

What an anodyne looking piece of crap.

I would not be caught dead in that, regardless of the technology under the bonnet or the technology of the drivetrain/suspension........

Choqiees · 11-01-2006, 09:54 PM

you can see the rear part of an MKIII...the rest is just a case of bad imagination .

Now I have heard some ramblings about the new Defender sharing the same platforn with the new Ford Bronco, wonder if that is true. I really like what I have read about this concept, and hope Ford is smart enough to bring it to the table.

I have read that somewhere the Bronco and Defender are going to be one and of the same. Like I said not sure about the truth in that. Although what I have read about that Bronco concept I like. Rubber interior, locking front and rear diffs, manually locking four wheel drive( not the push button shit).... sounds to me like Ford is really going to try to make something geared towards the offroad crowd.
