It is definitely not a split tailgate on the D5. It's a one piece with an (optional?) extending platform.2012 - 8 Speed D4 HSE in Indus Silver with surround cameras, adaptive headlamps, privacy glass, rear entertainment, 20" alloys.

You'll just have to trust me, and wait for Paris.
Unless there is a 'spy' shot with the tailgate up that appears before then. Which is highly likely, as the uncamouflaged interior shots appeared from someone stood by the test car with a phone when the dash cover was lifted for a minute!2012 - 8 Speed D4 HSE in Indus Silver with surround cameras, adaptive headlamps, privacy glass, rear entertainment, 20" alloys.

It's replicating the Disco Sports launch, I just hope it's not launched on a barge with giant Wellington boots with some dumb ass celeb driving it.23.5MY Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE D250 MHEV Pangea Green

Our road is on a test route I think as when the new RRS came out at about 1600 everyday there would be about a dozen go past together with I assume prospective buyers.
Last week LHD D5 came past, in black with a few grey camo bits, not the usual black/white combo.IID PRO
