My big things with the design of new cars it the "Squashed Roofline" look.
One of the best things about older Land Rovers is the big, high glasshouse.

If you look around the rising window line from the front windscreen to the back is a trend across the industry. Bit like the coke bottle styling trend from a few decades ago
Land Rover has just gone the most extreme in theirs. You cannot see out the side or back of some of them now due to this style trend
The command driving position is one of the features I look for in a Land Rover. Shame it is not there in the current crop. Was in a VW Tiguan the other day and it felt more like the command driving position than current Land Rover range offers. Perhaps a new head of design might bring it back

Does Land Rover have a new Head of Design?
…What? No more lilac Gerry? …Who apparently, “insists that his greatest achievement to date was to convince a bunch of hardcore engineers and mechanics at Land Rover to ditch their Henry Ford mindset of mass production, and accept the craft of infusing artistic beauty in vehicles.”
…art? guffaw …Land Rover has never been more mass produced! He ditched one of the worlds design classics in favour of a series of babushka doll-like mini-me Range Rovers. ….more like generic Gerry.
