its just gone the same way when folks commented on the D4 after the D3...and the D3 after the D2...and the D2 after the D1... MY2008 D3 - It got me hooked...gone
MY2012 D4 - It kept me hooked...gone
MY2007 D3 - Mid-Life crisis toy continues driving me to bankruptcy...
MY2018 "D5" Si6 - But is it a "true" LR...discuss...but now gone
Back in a D4 with a lot of extras....
Has anyone thought about the fact the lights are now horizontal instead of vertical on the pillars? I think that's more different than the numberplate.
I was upset when they launched the L322 in 2001, it didn't look like a Range Rover at the time, but it grew on me. The D5 will also grow on people.1972 Range Rover Classic 2 door V8

Probably because you can now buy an after market bracket the puts the rear number plate where it should be, in the center It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

I like understated elegance. It doesn’t have that and is overpriced. Lost interest.2014 MY Discovery XS Indus Silver. Sadly gone. Second last LR of forty eight years continuous ownership.

Only 23k on a MY2014 car owned from new with extended warranty and FSH with good indie. Be daft to change especially at my age. Could buy something new but love the D4.2014 MY Discovery XS Indus Silver. Sadly gone. Second last LR of forty eight years continuous ownership.

Have to admit its starting to grow on me, more so now the pricing is a tad more realistic.
