At least you have something to look forward to Malc ...I will be in my fully electric, self driven Disco by then ....I think I'll sit in the boot to look out through the one piece tailgate window

I'd bet that that an event platform, if one is exists on a D5, will be a cost option and standard on high end models.2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE
2010 D4 HSE (A bit bling)-GONE
2014 D4 HSE (Almost too bling)-GONE
2015 D4 HSE (A heated what?)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Written Off)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Surely the last!) PD1881 rims-GONE

I'd hate to make any assumptions here. Remember, these seem to be plonked on top of the structure of the lower tailgate and might be cheaper to make than all of the original Enginnering that goes into an "event platform".2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2

I was thinking of the D6 as being the first D5 "revamp".

That picture (posted by DG) looks like something that might be found in a gynae dept. Never take life too seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
