We've praised the current Defender's design, which manages the not-so-easy feat of looking wholly modern and yet unmistakably kin to the off-road icon that first appeared in the 1940s. To create a genuine three-row seating package required a third body style, and that's what we now have with the taffy-stretched Defender 130. The Defender 110 does offer the option of a supplemental rear bench wedged into the cargo area, though it's all but useless. Upon its debut, the reborn Defender appeared both as the mainstay four-door 110 and the two-door 90-which is lesser in length but greater in charm. The classic Land Rover Defender came in various sizes and shapes, so it's in keeping with tradition that the new one should too.
