This is your new Land Rover Discovery. Stick a fork in that

This I why LR is losing now. You can get fucking jeep with the same bubbly, generic design for about half the cost, and better reliability(believe it or not).

The moment they ditched their potent, aggressive designs in favor of jellybean cuckover shit was when they stopped being Land Rovers. Look at whats in store for the new """Defender""". Fuck them.

When they decided to not use mechanical differentials was the end for me.

Can't say I ever gave a fuck about Land Rovers.
The old ones might have been okay but they looked ugly as fuck with their headlights close together made them look like they have downs

>>17574542
this is what happens when you're bought out by poo-in-loos

>>17574542
>>17574890
I forgot to add, the switch to unibody platforms, for their entire fucking lineup was also a death knell for LR. Once again, look at the press statements for the new """Defender""".

>>17574542
>it's the every model in the lineup looks identical but different size meme
Cancer.

They could have very easily continued making the original Defender as well as rolling out the new Playskool model. Move the manufacturing of D1 to Mexico, cut production by 30-50%, jack up prices so it's a good margin under Merc G-Class, then get to raping and belittling LR Prestige with the new models

I actually wouldn't mind one of the new Defenders if money was no object... I would beat the absolute shit out of it in the name of hate and if it continued to perform maybe it'd work it's way into my heart

>>17575002
They could have, but didn't. There's a reason why the G, (current)Defender, and the Wrangler are so revered now. LR is officially the uppity, rich teen/soccermom brand.

>>17574931
>he doesn't blame the engineers and marketing people who made it
>implying TATA had a chance in engineering LR
Dude fuck off, LR and Jag are supplying tech in return to make TATA's cars better. Not the other way around.

So...whats the big deal? It looks exactly the same as the old discovery?!

>>17575369
It's like the whole auto industry is slowly sinking into this morass of conformity and mediocrity. Nothing's too good, nothing's too bad, but it costs like 3x more than it used to

>>17574542
Is this the thread where we pretend Land Rover was ever good?

>>17574542
Nonsense.

As long as trophy wives and stupid rich chinese assholes see a Land Rover badge, they will continue to buy them despite when we automotive cuckoldry landrover engages in.

They are basically a marketing company

>>17575369
Every single thread.

The guy who designed that for Ford now works at Land Rover.

Post real Land Rovers

Shitty city Cars that never even see a hint of mud or dirt GTFO

Still waiting to see what the new Defender will look like...

it's like they keep grabbing the ass of the car and stretching it out with each new one every year

>>17574542
Terrible posture.

It's a $80,000 Ford Explorer

>>17574542
Ah yes, the "rich man's" Ford Explorer, but unreliable and can have water leak through the moonroof.

>>17575231
>what kind of visibility you want
>just fuck my blindspots up
>say no more

>>17575231
That tire carrier looks like shit

>>17574542
I'VE SEEN MORE DISGUSTING, BUT THIS IS PRETTY DISGUSTING

LOOKS LIKE A FUCKIN FORD EDGE SHITBOX, EVEN THE LINCOLN MKX ON THE SAME PLATFORM LOOKS BETTER THAN THAT DISCOVERY

I STILL CRUISE MY L494 RR SPORT, THOUGH THE OLD L320 WAS A BIT BETTER LOOKING TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST, THIS SLIPPERY LINES BULLSHIT GOES TOO FAR FUCKING DILDO ON WHEELS BRING BACK SOME HARD EDGES FAGGOTS
