All makes sense Jon, thanks. ...I guess someone will buy it, but I have no idea how you would choose between D5, Velar, RRS. But that's not a problem I'm ever likely to have!

Seeing the Velar today in person, wow, it's a very striking car. Looks better in person than the pics. Very different to a D5 and RRS so will appeal to different people as the size is the main difference. (As well as other differences)

I reckon the Velar is the best looking car inside and out in the current LR stable. Its the least 4wd oriented but is still more capable than you think.
look better with the roof cut off

There maybe a choice of 2 Defenders now!! Old style and new! Hopefully this would keep some of you happy[emoji23]
Bring back Defender
Not quite sure how Land Rover has managed to make something as good looking as the Velar, and then managed to cock up the looks of the D5. I think the D5 looks alright up to the B pillar and from there back its terrible. Will be interesting to see what the new Defender looks like when it finally arrives
For a laugh I priced up a white D240 Velar with a tow pack, full size spare, driver aids and DAB.
$108K!
That's a lot of money for a small mid-range car.

So is it officially called the Land Rover Range Rover Velar, or have they realised the error of their ways?
It looks like a somewhat matured Evoque. Talking about the Velar or many LR products these days in reference to offroading, is like talking about a diamond ring's ability to cut glass. Its just not relevant, not optimised for the task, and surely unhealthy for its true purpose.
