    Cheers,
    It was very funny after the event but not so funny in the passengers seat grabbing cameras and trying to close vents at the same time while a Tsunami of stinking crud and water were bellowing in

    Interesting, looks like they have made it easy to convert the dash for left or right hand drive markets !

    I noticed that, I also heard a buzz about airbags (and as such, the possibility of sales to the US). shall be interesting to see.

    The gauges look exactly the same as the Range Rover Sport.

    Same Speedo/Tacho on the outer, with the Fuel/Temp gauge in the middle. Underneath, it might even have one of those LCD 'info centre' things to show MPG, Avg speed, etc

    Would be good if they would put the seats out of the sport in.

    If airbags are to be fitted, a whole new bulkhead would need to be engineered/built. This has been the weak link in the past, (according to legend, it buckles when the bag inflates !) and the reason it was withdrawn from the US market.

    This fender wont have the TDV6, the totally new one will cause it will have the same chassis as the D3, the engine going into the updated fender is a 2.7L version of theTurbo diesel found in the mondeo in europe. Matt
    Me thinks we could have a repositioned intercooler?
