I wouldn't even call it a 7 seater, the third row is completely useless to someone like me who doesn't have kids. I doubt mines will ever see the light of day, once the boot mats on the floor and the dog guards in that will be it.

Styling not to everyones taste, Im not a fan of those rear lights, also I was under the impression that the Range Rover, Discovery and Defender line ups were going to have a different design to make a clear distinction between the three. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

I think if they squared it of a bit and gave it some chiselled features then it may look a bit more Land Rover.

It's the first Land Rover that I almost cancelled, when I first seen it I thought, no its too stylish for me, too much like the Evoque its not what I was expecting it to look like. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

I had an invite from Hatfields in Hull for a December test drive, put it in the recycling bin, I'm playing hard to get
Only had my MY13 for just over a year so not interested until the warranty on this one runs out.

"playing hard to get" I think you find they'll have plenty of takers...

good for you sticking to your (spiked) guns  ...

Truth is, if I go I might weaken and waste more money so staying away seems the right option

Do they mean larger than the FL2? It may be but I thought internal loading capacity was comparable if not slightly smaller than the FL2?

Ford have launched the new explore r in the states... Can't help but think they are related....

When you see it you will know what I mean

See what you mean, although I think the Explorer has more of a 4x4 look and less of a sloping rear roof line, should give it a more usable tailgate opening.

Look out for the orange DS about half way through - it looks dreadful! In fact, the DS only seems to look reasonable in grey!

And one on the Ford Explorer:

It does look very like the DS - and look out for its terrain response system, very similar to the FL2/DS although it's claimed to be Ford designed and best in class!

Fancy 3rd row seats too.

When I picked my FL up there was an evoque in the same orange/bronze with a black roof and black wheels , to say it was ugly is an understatement.
If I hadn't bought my FL was going to have a look at this from ford , it comes out next year around the same time as the DS
