Came across this Autocar article this morning - apparently chemicals billionaire Jim Ratcliffe is planning to bring back the Defender, based on the results of a feasibility study. http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/land-ro...

Is it really likely that JLR will allow him to produce the car? And, given all the reasons JLR stopped producing the Defender in the first place, is it even likely they'd be able to produce a replacement (I guess the feasibility study will answer that one).

Seems like a crazy - but fun- plan?
