Thread: LRX

Was that the beryllium sphere being inserted into the console around 1'16secs?

I like it.

Looks better than anything else in its class - I'd rather drive it than any Honda or RAV4thing. (is that the right class).

It still looks like a Land Rover & I'm guessing since they're still proud of their 4wd heritage it will be as damn good offroad as it possibly can be.

If it sells and Land Rover can increase their market surely that will only be good for increasing the number & quality of dealerships.

A Defender it aint, and I'm not sure how I'd feel seeing a girl P plater parking one outside a cafe with no idea about its off road capabilities, but i reckon that's OK. It isn't going to change the image of the Defender I reckon.

I don't know that I'd be too happy if Landrover started bringing out 2wd sedans, but whatever they do in the 4wd market will be the best they can. That's the thing I like about the brand.

What's the phrase?? Something about judging a book by its cover...

BTW - You guys obviously missed a post about the LRX that I stuck up a little while ago: LRX Concept

They aren't selling its capabilities but it its widgets - like the iPhone holder.

Nope, read that first and posted this anyway

Well, no. That's just silly talk.

Hmm. Couldn't watch the video. It won't play on my Mac (probably something to do with asp?).

Anyway, I hear the Beamer's pretty good off-road too

Nope... Something wrong with your Mac. It plays perfectly fine on mine.

FWIW - An interesting vid.

Yes, well it is a concept car. It's amazing that you can actually drive it as most concepts are just there for show. On top of that, the last time LR produced a concept (Range Stormer), that led onto the Range Rover Sport. It'll be interesting to see what comes out of this concept.

Personally, I'd buy one.

As for abilities, well... Let's face it, all the LR products are excellent off-road, some would say "class leading". To me, the LRX has the makings of a pretty nimble off-roader.

Only time will tell...

It's a Land Rover - you don't need to sell its capabilities.
