    Origin of the Species

    Has anyone seen the billboard signs around for Land Rover, I think it says "Origin of the Species." then it has a pic of the new range rover next to it. Very nice !! They should make up a bumper sticker like that.

    Sounds good.

    Billboards have a habit of blowing away never to be seen again around here. in fact houses can do the same thing 8O

    another example of LR Australia promoting a vehicle no one can afford.........

    He just on that are there any members who actually own a new rangie?

    its funny ya know I come here and i see heaps of Disco owners , Plenty of Defender owners and a couple of Freelander owners (and I havent forgotten the series vehicle owners- im talking newer vehicles)

    No wonder I dont know any farmers that have a landrover ............

    Geez im going off today

    Hands back the soap box again

    Nice idea, but I think they put the wrong verhicle on the bilboard, shouldn't that be a defender (when will Land Rover learn that the Defender is it's Icon, not the Range Rover :roll: )

    Apparently never.

    I think they are in denial.

    They have a stated company policy to make the RR the "new" icon vehicle of the brand.

    Aspirational vehicle - perhaps.

    Icon vehicle - never :!:
    It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

    All part of their cunning plan to rid themself of the Defender 8O (don't think it quite fits in with the image that PAG want to project, so don't advertise it , it won't sell, say it's a poor seller and get rid of it ) They will advertise the RR as being the true Icon, with any luck most will forget about that beastly Defender thingy
