What's the one thing you would change about the design of a Defender?

Windscreen wipers....why are they still so useless when the car is designed to be driven in poor weather and through rivers?

But if you go through a deep enough river it'll wash your window's for you

Get rid of the computers and get back to easily maintainable in the field manual systems. Galvanised chassis and bilkhead as already said, and a decent snorkel as standard.

I think the only thing i'd change is having a clock, feels weird with one not there.

A CLOCK? if thats all you would change you are either easily pleased or your 5 feet tall with the best defender in the universe .

Erm.......the design of the Defender by the looks of things

Langers · Jul 30, 2010

Probably a bit more shoulder room, fit axle lockers as standard as per Japanese rivals, and if we're talking about current 'fenders, get rid of the TDCi, and go back to a 'Tdi-esque' motor without computers or electronics.

I reckon the 'fender needs the option of 2 or 3 different diesel lump/gearbox combinations of varying size and power. For example I think it should have a big, simple 3.5 or 4.0 litre turbo diesel engine as an option, along with a suitably strong gearbox and running gear, and then a 3.0 turbo diesel, and then the standard 2.5 turbo diesel.

There is ONE thing that has started to annoy me and somehow i wish it was changed with the Defender.

I keep snagging my belt loop on my jeans on the damn door lock mechanism when getting in....
