Well, if you want to go offroading in Brown County or up at the Dunes it makes sense!

Default umm... two different beasts. My wife only wants to drive the defender ...

On sunny warm days. Which leaves me wanting my Avant back most of the time. Shoot me an e-mail if you are serious, so that I can give you an idea of what you are getting into.

Gas milage isn't that good on 'em. Aston Kutcher drives one. Used, high-mile H1 is cheaper.

Mostly nostalgia. My first car back in '94 was a '72 Series II Land Rover.

Agree, gas milage sucks. Hmmmm, maybe I should just mod my S4; right now it's stock.
