    The latest Land Rover Owner International has a write up on the D5 and I'm impressed. I reckon they are going to sell shedloads of them.

    LROI says 19s will be the smallest size.

    Oh the Discovery is finally going to get some "off-Road Cred" so that it can compete against a Prado and Everest .... mmm interesting.

    I obviously haven't been reading enough lately .... the 'Worlds Most Awarded' is getting usurped?

    That's interesting. So standard is 19s, but there's going to be an SVX with 18s and smaller brakes. Sounds good.

    Has it been mentioned that the D5 looks almost the same as a Ford Explorer from a distance - the D5 body must have been designed when LR was still in Ford ownership.

    The great thing about the D4 as a 4wd was its functionality in its body shape - if you didn't need that you could go for a RRS like I did.

    The new D5 shape is more RRS and less functional than the D4 for 4wd use.

    For me when it comes time to change over my RRS, I will not have to look at a newer RRS but can look at the D5 as I do not the functionality of the D4 for my 4wding.

    Looks nothing like a Ford Territory..
    That's like saying if a woman has curves they all look like Miss Monroe!

    And what functionality do you speak of?
    Besides some new compound curves what is it about the D5 that makes its functionality so different?

    In fact let's take a look..

    Current Territory.


    Then the outgoing D4 front end:


    And the curves evolution of that front end in a D5:


    I can see the family blood line D4 - D5..

    Not a lot similar to the Territory..
