Just wait until the new Defender arrives and all hell breaks loose over there. It should just be calming down on here by that time 23.5MY Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE D250 MHEV Pangea Green

I have the D5 HSE on order because to my eyes it looks good & with all ithe improvements it's ideal for me
In 3/5 years all thing being equal will be buying the Defender ( will wait for SVO version) to keep long term.
I will supplement it with a small electric/hydrogen car which ever takes off.
Maybe Land Rover will have one in 5 years?Peter

With the disguise everybody would be looking at it. Without disguise it is anonymous and could be any other suv

Ahhhh yes, but people on this forum are knowledgeable, the great unwashed couldn't give a hoot as long as it has 4 wheels and steering.

No loads of vw transporters, and merc vitos.
I think ours was only D4, loads of RRS various ages, few full fats- l322, ewokes and a few Freelander 2s.

Looked browny grey. Like dirty grey.
Definitely not a proper Discovery, looks fat ass'd and big mouthed. Cramped inside and just like all the other current offerings!Discovery commercial tdv6 auto 2013

That picture angle makes the front bumper look excessively wide
Since the D5 and RRS share the same wheelbase dimensions what is the difference in interior room in rows 1 and 2? Is the D5 narrower inside compared to the RRS?16 D4 Landmark

I did not study long as I am not interested in one, think LR have made a big mistake and hope the new defender turns out better!
The front is lumpy or large. It's butt is huge!
