Are they trying to hide something?
I saw this at a trade fair yesterday promoting LR branded spectacles - notice which part of the car is hidden from view!

Don't worry.... I get idiots saying to me that I'm too frightened to show the back end of my motor because when I publish a nice photo of it it's always from the front ...just like every nice photo I've ever taken of a motor in my entire life 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Had a look at a parked Velar today D180. Lovely lines. Elegant. Shame it was in white. Sorry J77. I just have a thing about white (and black) cars. I think I would like a closer look.2014 MY Discovery XS Indus Silver. Sadly gone. Second last LR of forty eight years continuous ownership.

I thought they were hiding the fact that the designers should have been first in line for the LR specs, but weren’t.
Next products thermals for owners of late D4s?

Grainaig - I had the choice of either Black or White, I don’t like Black cars so White it was. Though my original spec was a D180 S in Byron Blue withe eclipse (Blue) leather with the view of taking delivery in May but was offered a better deal on a car the dealer had coming, so hence the White D240 R-Dynamic SE. It’s worth taking the 24Hr test drive offer.23.5MY Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE D250 MHEV Pangea Green

Tempting providence but my D4 heating behaves impeccably.
LR once “did” a watch. Presented on the purchase of one of my D2s. Typically the battery went flat.
