I think we can quickly forget about that.

Apparently all vehicles by LR have to cater to farmers and their wives. Anything that isn't 'agricultural' will automatically get flamed.

April 1st came round quick...

oh dear

[Jenx]

With the equivalent of a Halfords tent for a roof it will look awful...

[LuS1fer]

Here's another one I saw earlier.

[Carnnoisseur]

Probably looks better in the flesh?

[sherbert90]

I think if they have to make a convertible version, they should do it in the style of a Fiat 500, keeping the roofline of the hardtop, with a retractable fabric roof.

Whatever they do, they will sell in droves.

[pvj]

At least it solves the problem of poor rear headroom!

[k-ink]

[Hairspray]

Ooh. I really rather like that. Oh dear.

[M3SMGE46]

pointless because they appear to be afraid to provide a photo/mockup of the concept with the roof up!
Scuttle shake...?

Until they make a cheap version then it's more for those that have cash to flash than anything else...

They should have replaced the defender first... and made an upmarket version of that instead....

[tommy vercetti]

I like it, think it looks alright, that colour doesn't suit it though imo. I think it will sell really well.

That is a far better looking.
Some morons will buy the other crap though, for the first time in my entire life I have to say, 'I'd rather get the bus'.

Should go down well with the double-double-barrelled set, history has demonstrated a fondness for sitting in the back of this sort of car amongst Germans.

[mattbvw]

I think this is probably a bit more production ready than just a pie in the sky concept... It would undoubtedly sell well in the US, Far East and here - a WAG's dream.

Looks a kids pedal car. In fact that's what I thought it was looking at the small pic on the front page.
