    Add to that modern global regulations for emissions, impact, pedestrians etc and you will find many vehicles will need to adopt sweeping lines, soft edges etc...

    Beauty is only skin deep - the capability will lie beneath.

    And an inline six should have more torque than its V counterpart (V config is a packaging exercise mostly)




    And who will be an early adopter? The current D4 has evolved from the same shell D3 slowly since 2004. It has evolved over 11 years. The first of a new line will always need updaters. Do you want to go first? How much more torque do we want?

    Some owners of the new RRS are looking forward to being able to "keep the suspension up" (and down) in a few months so presumably some D5 owners will also want to.

    If your after advice on getting another Land Cruiser to replace the D4 Barry then I reckon old mate Melbourne Park would be the man to speak to. ...

    Very, very unlikely to be another LR. Love my D3 but not a fan of the new line up.

    Seriously what new LR line up?

    Sure everyone knows everything about the Disco Sport but bugger all really about the new D5.

    Same goes for the new Defender, no one even knows what that thing will truly even look like or what it's features are likely to be. So how is it that people are already judging the 'new LR line up' when only one of three models has been made public?
    Cheers,

    The biggest problem with any new LR model will be that it is new. People don't like change.

    Really, how could they possibly be any good if they are not based on a piece of post-war agricultural equipment?

    Cheers,
    Jon

    my views are my views, I don't care for the new line up and there is no value in others attacking that view.


    What is it with online forums and the keyboard warrier mentality.


    So seriously you enjoy your view and I'll enjoy mine which is I do not care for the new LR line up. QED
