DRIFT APART????

This article is quoted from The Royal Automobile Club of Victoria's monthly magazine; ''Royal Auto.'' (Feb 2007.)

''''ROVERS DRIFT APART
Land Rover and Range Rover are going in different design directions to give greater distinction between the two brands.
The brand's UK design director Gerry McGowan says Land Rover's new theme will be Premium Adventure. ''It's not utilitarian but clean and contemporary.''
Range Rover, meanwhile, will be sent further upmarket as Premium Sophistication - ''refined, progressive and powerful,'' McGowan says.''''

Cheers All, off to put DISCO3.CO.UK sticker on the truck. Very Happy
David.

When there's room in my D3 for 7,
Climb in here Joe we'll soon be flying,
I can go just as fast with 7.

Hi Slimer,
I thought the same on the FL. The pic was taken at a motor show I would say by the amount of bling & people in the background. I tried to scan the article but the scan came out Censored house, as well so detail is not there.
I will keep trying. (might even contact the Journo to find pics origin.)
Cheers,
David.

David.


Here's a link to another version of the full article:

http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dll/arti.../1039/FREE

Can't wait to see the 2012 Range Rover! I hear that it will have an aluminum body based on Jaguar that will shave a half ton off the weight. This will also filter down to the Disco4. Not listed but I guess the Disco3 is due for a "refresh" in 2009. Hmm.

Hi Roverdawg,
Thanks for the link. Interesting as they elaborate on the article I had from Royal Auto.

Hi Slimer,
Contacted Royal Auto. Club & spoke to the editor of Royal Auto who said that the pic came from LR/RR. and he did not have much of an idea as to origins. He told me the site he got the pic from is password protected.
Cheers All,
David.
