OK, so if I order one with the towbar I get the bulbous rear nappy, if I order without I get the flatter ribbed version. What happens if you have the flatter version and then buy a towbar, do you have to swap the center trim to fit over it?
@Russ - its starts 16th from what I can see. Yes, might be an idea - thanks.

There’s an ‘Urban’ living not to far from me, and have seen it a few times now. To be honest, I like it!!

Am I missing something or isn’t the original photo of a discovery sport not a d5?

It’s an easy mistake to make in any view but the rear
For a definitive spot from the front, the DS had rounded tops to the A pillars, the D5’s are angled. That’s how I tell them apart anyway!2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8
2023 to date: FL2 as a second car

2022 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200 & sidecar!

The only one left with somewhat original line design is the regular size Range Rover.
Lets see what happens with the new Defender, but not holding my breath. Funny how the new Bronco and the new Jimmy have gone back to the square design again.

Different cars, I know, but the new Insignia and Polo are now very flat surfaced and more rasor edged too. Designs seem to flip flop between curvy and hard edged every 10 years or so and I think that curves may have had their time in the sun.2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
