I was looking at the current RRS in the garage this morning, FL TAZ is having a new seat base fitted.
It was very very nice but let down by being black , oh and the price £70k Shocked

The new RRS is too Evoquish to be different, makes you wonder where they will go with the next Freelander as looking at those pics you could almsot say that should have been it.
Maybe the rumours of it being a Disco Sport a nearer the mark?

The more I look at this the more I feel it's a photoshop job.
The reflections on the rear quarter panel are not right, they are very hard to get right in PS.
Although, they must be pretty close or LR wouldn't have been so swift out of the blocks......or would they?

Marks and Spencer donkey pie here......nom nom nom Thumbs Up


The OP would say that he was prepping it though Rolling Eyes I bet if it is real he may well have had to sign a non disclosure agreement, I can't see LR letting him get away with having one in his premises, which also look very down market for someone entrusted with such work.

Only a few sleeps to go then the world will know.

To take a prototype from jag land rover you have to sign a document which states you won't leave the vehicle parked in public, wont take any camo off and won't allow pictures to be taken.

I imagine the LR driver who took it there would/should have been there at all times to stop anything like that happening. They are known to 'slip' though, anyone remember the Disco 3 pictures that covered the front of every car mag back in 2004 after LR employees removed the camo for a pap.

It's fair to say someone will be getting bo**ocking about this! Mine: 2012 Golf GTI Edition 35

These pictures are from Disco 4, allegedly the same guy has leaked pictures on both launches, I smell a rat?
The pictures have gone viral on the net, so maybe a marketing ploy?

Got to say in my mind it all a load of tosh

I ask myself would LR after spending god knows how much on the development of a new model/range realy send it out in to a what looks like a back street garage ,Hmm me thinks not.
The new car thats not yet been out on public display will be sat highly pollished under a dust sheet well out of the way of joe public untill the big day.

You'd be surprised how many manufacturers use a small local to do some finishing touches...and the amount they pay for it!

I do have to agree that tinting windows isn't exactly a major job...they'll have the vinyl at LR for the clay models. Mine: 2012 Golf GTI Edition 35

There looks to be so many things wrong with the reflections. Look at the blokes legs in the picture outside the wheel shop!
