Somehow I just couldn't imagine it covered in mud, it still looks a bit to much like a Rav4 for my liking.

[Phoenix]

I really like that. I'd replace the x-trail with it in a heartbeat :cool:

[BigJon]

Pheonix - Why would you have an X-Trail in the first place? Horrible plastic things they are, don't even have the instruments in the correct place! Then they go and fit the engine in sideways with a pretend 4wd system. For that size vehicle in that price range, a Subaru Forester would always be my first choice. PS I am not having a real go at you, just having a laugh.:D :D

[Phoenix]

To be honest, I was a subaru man before I was a landrover man, and the forrester would have been my choice. But the X-trail has quite a bit more space inside. The x-trail is my wifes daily drive (about 2 hours every day), the series 3 is mine ;)

[LoadedDisco]

Very nice that is a big improvement with them.

[barney]

looks a bit big in the nose!

[DiscoTDI]

Its a baby rangie:D

[rangieman]

dont look no different to me only very slight cosmetic changes

but thats the landrover way of thinking:eek:

[sumo]

Hope their more reliable than the previous models, To many horror stories with them.:mad:

[LoadedDisco]

Its a baby rangie:D

Thats what I reckon and has the better interior similar to an 2004 - 2005 rangie.

[DiscoTDI]

I quite like it

[matbor]

Love the front, not sure of the back, looks like they took the front of the RRS and the back off the out going Freelander and stuck it together !!

Is the underneath the same T5 platform the one the disco and RRS use or is it named something else ??

Found this info as well :
The new Freelander grows in length by two inches, which frees up more room inside the cabin as well as under the hood. The new motor under that flat hood will be a 3.2L V6 that produces 230 horsepower. A 2.2L turbo-diesel will also be available for Europe that produces around 160 horsepower. A six-speed manual or automatic can be ordered along with the company's lauded Terrain Response system.

Pricing has not been announced, nor where and when the model will publicly debut, although the timing of these pictures suggests next month at the British Motor Show.

Not the T5 platform underneath. it's amodified C1 platform from memory. it's shared with a volvo and another vehicle (although as I said, somewhat modified).
