New Defender Photo?
Coventry Telegraph published this photo at 3.24pm speculating that it could be a new Defender prototype. Whatever it is, the wheelbase is around 500mm shorter than the Evoque, assuming 19in wheels.

Re: New Defender Photo?
Yup. It’s a mule. Hacked RRS body on test chassis and running gear.
There are far better forums to be welcomed at than this one that locks threads because certain members can’t take a bit of criticism

Re: New Defender Photo?
There’s also versions running around with an extended wheelbase, so they’re doing a 90 and 110 equivalents (or short and long wheelbase anyway if not those exact numbers).

Just had to give way to a prototype 90(ish) this lunchtime coming out of Gaydon...looked rather odd on 20" wheels being such a short chassis.
