This bench and seat are identical to what was shown on the Disco Vision. Perhaps they are already testing the Disco Park Bench and that is why the lower bumper is designed to look like it is Perhaps 2018 models or later will get this option.16 D4 Landmark

So maybe an excuse for the rear looking so odd.

Nice WheelsIn the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
.....Do you think marketing asked the wrong questions to the wrong people.
Yes....wrong people, wrong questions, results in the mess the D5 is...
Maybe with the park bench a horse trough could be added....BREXIT - done properly.

Just a little confused why they went to the cost of Patenting it.
We only did so to protect things being copied, I don't think here there is much chance anybody would want to.

I just looked at it again, it's not a bench and footrest but an rear ejector seat for those that badmouth the D5 design. Driver can set it to half or full scalp for the ejection onto the tailgate fangs. 16 D4 Landmark

Didn't some one recently post on here saying this rear bench thing must be a must have for their next Land Rover?
Found it, Something similar but not exactly the same, The comedy value those styrup style foot rests could provide..... After deploying the bottle of Bubbly from the Holster on side curtain.
