United Kingdom 2014 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Orkney Grey

I wonder if Highways will take them - according to the guys at the control room in South Birmingham they prefer the Mitsi's over the Disco 5's as the LR's don't like long periods idling when holding a closure - screws up the DPF, whereas the Mitsi's don't throw their teddies out!

Then again, the procie tey pay for the D5's is very....competitive! 2000 Xei 1.8 gone
2004 HSE Td4 Auto, MT's, sump guard, sliderz - gone
2014 GS Man - AT's, Mantec Sump guard and tank guard, split charger in boot, towbar, work in progress...

Every time I see these undisguised pictures coming through the more I think “Discovery”

Maybe they will rename D5 to Disco Super Sport Laughing Regards

There’s a lot to be said for that 👍 As a larger clone of the Disco Sport (and thinking of iPhones), it’s either Disco Sport Plus, or Disco Sport Max. The Defender can be a Defender and then the real Discovery 5 could be a development of it. Make it a bit longer, a bit posher, give it a proper tailgate and call it “Discovery 5”, with none of this “New Discovery” nonsense Rolling Eyes

Add some vat to that £20000, then add plenty for crew cab, then a healthy dose of £'s for some comforts and possible auto box. Paint of any colour seems to be a cost option too Confused At work

“Last year, Land Rover chief design officer Gerry McGovern said: “We have to stop thinking about function in a durable way. When you're buying into the [Land Rover] brand, you're buying a premium product.””

What a Clown! Evil or Very Mad

It’s a “premium product, yet the £45,000 starting price wont buy either air suspension, or anything more than a 4 cylinder Ingenium. Sad
