Will be Retro

I’m clearly a styling outlier in this Sub Forum

The last good looking Discovery was the D2a

The D5 although overly expensive and Uber-luxo SUV is less ugly than a D3/4

This monstrosity with non compound curves at the guards/ hip and roof line is hilarious!
They were trying to bring in styling from the defender but in playing with and modernising and linking to the other SUVs they have made it look silly!!!

This is purely my aesthetic styling opinion.

It is ugly 💁*♂️

It could be a good jigger but at $100k plus and no Ute option for the foreseeable future I’m not upset it’s so ugly as I won’t have to own one!!!

I just got a message from my mate in Moscow, he said this vehicle has Moscow rego and the photo was taken on a location of the new James Bond movie, you can see a lighting tripod and other lights in the reflection in the door.

And the white ute in the background has a UK web address on the back of it, which supports the UK connection.

It certainly seems to have a wierd bonnet design.

Maybe the guards come off reasonably easily for access?

We will know for sure in a few weeks.

Well spotted [emoji1419]

I like it, bloody annoyed that there will be no ute, but as one of the vehicles biggest fans, the old defender was done, Im looking forward to seeing what they have to offer, esp in the form of a 6 cylinder engine, maybe a commercial van option as per the past?? Bring it on!

If you go into any LR dealer and ask to see a D5 they will not have one. They don't have D5's listed.

The vehicle is a DISCOVERY.

Why do posters in this forum insist on calling the latest DISCOVERY a D5?

Because it's the next in line from the D4 and it makes sense so that brand followers immediately know what vehicle is being discussed.

Cheers

And...just like the new Defender will be likely known as "new Defender" or "Defender 2"...
