RE: New Land Rover Discovery Sport images

[DoctorX]

I love the styling of the current Discovery, shame they're changing it. I have to say though those new Transit's are butt ugly.

You know, until you mentioned it, I had never noticed how alike they were. Its uncanny!

I cant believe Ford let them get away with it! Surely a copyright infringement.

This is a better colour match for you



This ones off road too

I concur.

Not sure...it depends on what the "full fat" Discovery "5" will look like. It could be brilliant.

You're entitled to your own opinion, of course.

An acquaintance of mine has a Transit Connect. Park one next to a Discovery 3 and it becomes apparent that Ford used to own JLR...

Ill get a Disco 4 HSE SD V6 next. Won't get one of these new ones though, I'd be more inclined to buy a Defender than a Range Rover, it's just more my thing.I suspect I'm not the only one.

See there's a matching video too

So that's what that is! I saw them testing in the wind tunnels at work about 9 months ago.

Dear lord. What a monster.

I will give Land Rover one thing, in this and the RRS at least "sport" isn't just a trim level!

May be he meant the Transit Connect?

Just like these two:

You might be on to something there, keep it up

Yep...four wheels, a bonnet, a boot, windows, lights...exactly the same! Anyone who pays more than the price of the Lada is clearly an idiot!!!1

At least, unlike a TD4 freelander, they don't drive like one...

A FFRR can hit 100k - i have more trouble believing a current top spec is nearly 55k.I honestly believe Joe Public would not put one at more than 40k max.

You couldn't be more wrong! No one cares about the actual figure the car's 'worth', they only car what the monthly payments will be and whether they can afford that

[jakeb]

so it will be the love child of a discovery and an ewok, making it a freelander but with big windows at the back that go into the roof

Is it? In that case I'm definitely not getting one.
