You forgot to mention the funnel and 12 litre oil catch can or are you going to dump it on the road side in the bush?
Why not?
Land Rover has been doing that for 70 years?

Land Rover: We will launch a super high tech Defender with more software than Mars Rover 1, air suspension & an array of soft interior materials. It will have 16 cameras & be Wi-Fi connected, 6 driving modes, adjustible ride height, numerous power points(240v, USB, USB-C etc.), we will offer dozens of trim levels & configurations (S, SE, HSE & numerous packages, in SWB & LWB with 3 different engine choices) it will cost from over R800k.

Toyota: We will relaunch a vehicle that was 20 years old when we first launched it 10 years ago.
It will have nothing. There will be choices. No options. Nothing. It will be just under R800k.

Your move Land Rover...

I'm surprised they can still sell that motor to be honest. It's the kind of thing that upsets the Gretas of this world...

People complain that vehicles are to high tech these days (Defender). "We want old school"!

People complain when a Cruiser is still built like it was 40 years ago.

I don't understand people

Mike, people are idiots. If it wasn’t for people, the world would be a better place to live.
