DG how about a poll? Few option suggestions:
It's gorgeous and would endure serious pain to have one
It's good looking but only if the price is right
It's ok s'pose but will be waiting for the D6
It's not very pretty and looks too much like an ePoke
It's an horrible as a LR but nice as a Saab.

Same as the Range Stormer, Evoque, RRS2, DC100 etc
Only built to gauge public reactions
All the above were received very well, bar the DC100 from hardcore Deafner owners, and look what happened My D3 Build Thread

The more i view it, the more i think it looks great.
Lose the doors, make the tailgate split, as i like to use the top part as a rain stopper when sitting on the bottom. Maybe change the front bumper a touch as i can see it sitting too low, like the D2 ones.
Otherwise, just hope it comes with good selection of wheels.
Will happily have one 2nd hand in a few years time. In loving memory of FA54WSK.
Rest well old friend, your work is done.

I'm much more comfortable with that than I thought I would be. It is not designed to be a commercial workhorse from this (Defender range?) but for people and domestic loads it looks promising. Even the tailgate seat arrangement looks a good solution to the split which always made loading deep into the boot a problem. Needs a flat floor with the seats down though. The concept seats look fancy but no good to put things on - bits would fall through the gaps.
Pricing will be important. Can see one being preordered though!

Face on, it looks a bit "odd". The headlights and grille don't merge very well
The silly recess on the tailgate is a bit pointless, and looks out of place
