RE: Range Rover Sport leaked undisguised
Discussion
This sound very much planned. Im sure this guy would not be getting sued. The possibly did this on purpose, I guess to give a taster to forum users and enthusiasts. The general publics would view it when the official press release.
Seems to have happened with many cars over the years.

Defo prefer the previous model on when it comes to looks, new one looks like an Evoque on steroids. Wouldn't turn it down either!

He won't just have lost repeat business from this, he'll be on the receiving end of a call from LR's lawyers. He will have signed an NDA when he did this work and will be hauled over hot coals because of this leak.
Companies world over deal with pre-production, secret cars every day for various reasons, they all sign NDAs and mostly stick to them as they know they'd be too damn stupid not to.
I used to do work for a Canadian company that did subcontract work for different automakers using pre-production prototypes, wrangling cars for TV commercials and movies etc. Companies world over deal with pre-production, secret cars every day for various reasons, they all sign NDAs and mostly stick to them as they know they'd be too damn stupid not to.
We were never asked or made to sign any kind of non desclosure documents.
Window tinting was done for cars/trucks used in commercials (mostly for GM) , the tinter would come into our facility and do the work, at night mostly.
I suspect this fellow didnt know or was told about the "unwritten rules" and his mate snapped a couple of shots, they at least put some tape over the Land Rover badges on the wheel centres!
If he is punctual,works cheap and does good work they will probably ask him back.:lol:
I'm not really a Range Rover sort of person, let alone a RRS person, but that looks really good. They have lost the clumsiness of the previous model, in my opinion.
Good work Land Rover, they will sell by the bucket load.
The new normal Range Rover looks pretty boring to my eyes. It has lost the detached country house on wheels look of the old one and looks a bit like something KIA would design if they were to build a luxury 4x4.

"That’s been the logic of this happy chappy. Going by the username of ‘the art of tint’, he posted these shots of what would seem to be the new Range Rover Sport on window tinting forum, adding that he’d just tinted it on Land Rover’s behalf for a TV commercial. Given that Land Rover has only just released its first teasers of the new car and is planning on a reasonable bit of build up to the car’s official unveiling in just over a week’s time, it’s reasonable to assume that this was not officially sanctioned. Oops."
Oh, good.
Not much consolation, but nice to see one example of this "teaser" b
ks killed stone dead for once.
I really loathe marketing crap like this.
If I had my way, all marketing executives (sic) would be sharing a big cell with Huhne right now...

I don't think LR would have chosen an oiled stained workshop with 'Chubby The Tint' as their (un)official leak photo.Seems to have happened with many cars over the years.

I think it look good. Slightly boring in that its design is mainly a case of up scaling the evoque however we must remember that the evoque itself was quite ground breaking.
As a corporate face it works better than I expected. Good work.
I also think it looks like a large Evoque. As a corporate face it works better than I expected. Good work.
LR are meant to be releasing a Evoque XL. Could well be very similar to the RRS!
At first glance, I'm not very keen on the new RRS.
Unless the the tint guy signed some kind of NDA, JLR can't do very much about it.
This looks better proportioned and better looking than both the FFRR barge and the Evoque, which is nothing more than a trinket designed to lure unsuspecting buyers into jumping on the Range Rover 'brand'wagon. A wagon that looks like its just had a Monty Python 16 ton weight dropped on its back end.
It looks less steroid-dealing nightclub bouncer than the last one, but the fact that RR chose to give it the treatment shown in the picture isn't a good start.
Sorry RR, less vulgar, but still vulgar nonetheless.

Let's be honest, if they wanted to keep it secret they'd not have given it to someone to do tints - I suspect RR have someone who can do that somewhere in the empire...
Guerilla marketting strikes again - marketting is a pile of old dogs kidneys which achieves nothing at the best of times but it's now gotten so complicated that they can even say their fk-ups are deliberate AND come up with a name for them
In other news, RR now have a pair of cars which can go on Super-sized vs Super-skinny

Cannot believe how many p'hers have fallen for this. LR managers must be falling off their seats. As sure as Monsieur Hollande will be winding us all up, prior to the EU referendum, trying to get us to leave, this is an official leak.
Nice car. Pleased to see it does not have the Evoque rear. Its either one of these or the funky new defender for me. RR now out of my league.
