After my derisive comments about the Macan's styling, what new cars (on sale today) are instantly recognisable by their basic silhouette alone - i.e. from too far away to distinguish badges / DRLs / panel details...

Ideally I'm also thinking to most people with only a passing interest in cars - not PH geeks! biggrin

Porsche 911 is a fairly obvious one

Range Rover used to be, but getting a bit soft on the corners now and morphing into other shapes

Defender (but not for long)

What else?

Nissan Juke, esp at night, the lights are a dead give away even from a distance.

Yup, I'm usually pondering as to why it has a set from three different style cars from at least 600 yards.
