When you say that it's leaning a lot, in comparison to the FL2, or a D4?

This is in comparison to the D4. I also found the power on the D4 to me more aggressive maybe because it has a twin turbo as opposed to the 3L single turbo on the D5. We have 3 D4's in the family and I don't drive them very often BUT this is what I noticed on the test drive. It's a very capable car off the tarmac also certain photos I cannot upload due to it being a road test drive.  MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

The rear of the car with the number plate off centre looks bloody terrible blub:

Thanks for the answer. I never particularly notice the roll in the D4, but then it has every right to roll a little considering what it is and what it's designed for However, if the D5 rolls more, then that's a real turn up for the books.

Looking at the photos, it's really very difficult to tell apart from my work colleague's black Disco Sport.

bottom right corner of plate needs corner cutting off, other its not so bad really,
once covered in road grime its not relevant anyway At work

I think an 11" x 8" plate will suit it best  MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

As long as the whole of the rest of the car can be "adapted" to suit!

Ive just played about in Photoshop, wherever it goes, it doesn't seem to fit

The obvious doesn't even look right

smaller plate ...

Key phrase there, "boot it" any large car will roll. It's a large car I wouldn't expect it to not roll in corners, there isn't a lot of weight reduction on the 3.0 cars, they are still pretty heavy, 480kg only applies to the 2.0 SD4. I'll find out on the 22nd though, the EU6 16MY D4 is spritely. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

Yes Jamie

But when I boot the other 3 D4s that we have they don't roll no where near as much! Tbh I don't mind if it rolls it's an off road vehicle! I'm just surprised at how much it does.... As a passanger in the back I also got thrown around a lot more than a do in a D4. This was in just normal town driving. MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

It was worth a try, but it has to stay as LR intended; apart from the "full nappy", it's the only way to tell it apart from the rest
