TIGHTCHOKE Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 A Mini on Steroids, designed for the American market, where they have no taste so it will sell millions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norfolk dumpling Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Like it. Love all the L/R range - have driven all but the new Velar - but just wish they would put them together better. Expensive **** our local L/R service manager described them as! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TriBsa Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 (edited) Featured Gallery: Land Rover Defender Concepts at the Delhi Auto Expo Doesn't mean the finished product will look like this, otherwise it would be a launch. Think of all the other wacky concept vehicles you have seen. Although I wouldn't hold out much hope of a continuation of the Landrover gene. What has happened to all the Landrover tooling, has that been shipped to India? Edited August 19, 2017 by TriBsa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-dot Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 I heard it was going to Poland but a land dispute has mothballed that plan... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr gen Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Quite possibly the worst thing I have ever seen, I have always been a Land Rover fan But that is just horrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Are the Santanas still made in Spain? Would have thought they might have jumped in here and purchased all the tooling etc. I have one of their LT85 gearboxes on my V8, noisy but strong. That is where Land Rover started going wrong in my view. They changed the Defender and Range Rover gear boxes so that ladies could change gear easier taking the kids to school and the boxes they put in were not up to the extra power the engines were producing.

Fen tiger Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) If that is introduced they have missed an opportunity to produce a worthy upgrade to an established brand and model with a real heritage. This would be a far more worthy design to adopt. http://www.diseno-art.com/encyclopedia/concept_cars/ibex_f8.html Edited August 20, 2017 by Fen tiger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaymo Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 I sort of like it ( not the convertible though) Sort of reminds me of a Toyota FJ and Skoda Yeti. Sorry folks, progress means the old Landy/Rangy will never exist as we knew them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosd Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 I like it. I think if the roof was to colour it would look a lot better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRYAN3 Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 If you can afford one it means you don't have look at the outside of it. Anyway, is this the thing we were promissed for 2015? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigeon controller Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 I think that the main concern is to design it within the E U specifications which are very stringent and cause all vehicles of the same type to look similar. I think Land Rover would like to design a pick up type but it will not carry sufficient passengers. I have seen many prototypes over my many years starting at the Rover Car Companies jet engined car reg no Jet 1 which I think was code name the spider and entered in Le Manns. Over to the Massive to be corrected? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
