If the new photos from Land Rover are anything to go by, looks like we have another Evoque on our hands.

Land Rover Discovery Vision Concept (New York 2014) Autonews.fr

I think the Discovery 4 may sadly be the last of the great Discovery, in the same way the Range Rover L322 was far superior to the current L405.

Seems paramount to make all cars look the same across the range now.

I like the L405 but still don't feel it has the presence of the L322.

It is so rounded it doesn't appear as significant.

Generally speaking I am not at all enamoured with pedestrian safe vehicles.

How bland.

Must admit to prefering car aware pedestrians.

Nothing wrong with safety or anything else about it maybe looks a bit daft like it will cringe at the thought of getting muddy

What alarms me is it will be ready for scrap in less than 10 years due to electikery going wrong and generally parts are made out of stamped steel and spot welded together instead of being made to last they are made to last a few years then be thrown away


I bet a lot of disco 1 and 2's will see off all the others it will be interesting to see which ones are still being run in 20 or 30 years time

Thats if there's any diesel left cos mines drunk it all

Defo d1 and d2 outlasting d3 that's for sure already late d2 worth more than early d3

I'm certainly looking forward to the old guard having the last laughs, mine will be kept in service for all eternity, easy and cheap to fix, vs difficult and expensive on late vehicles, haha it's going to be entertaining in a few years time!

cheap to fix for now. as demand drops, parts will become scarce and prices will rise.

But let's be honest, why would the demand drop?

People are not wanting to get later vehicles.

It's not like the difference between 2 door and 4 door rangies, now it's a case of oeople avoiding the later cars and trying to keep the old ones going for as long as possible.

With the amount of stuff in circulation it'll be a long time before we run out.

Land Rover = off-roading; why would you buy a Disco to drive only on the road? Again, trying to appease the Chelsea mommies.
