Tasman Blue looks really nice better in person than on press photos I’ve seen, there was one ready for collection at my local dealer. |

Some nice shots of the D90 P400SE on this Instagram account. Think it’s from a dealership in Lithuania. There are more photos of it on that page. Rear seating looks as spacious as the 110 albeit got to climb over front seats to get in also rear light doesn’t look bad at all with tyres signature graphic option. |

Watching the latest Powerful UK You Tube vid about the new 90 I think that Land Rover missed a trick with the rear seats.
Yes there’s lot of leg room in the back, yes the boot space with the seats up is poor. So my thoughts (and JLR already do this with the Discovery Sport), why did they not have the rears with the ability to slide forward, thus improving the boot space without the need of putting the seats fully down. It would be good for general shopping, dogs and parents with little ones in baby seats. Just my thoughts.... |

Yeah just watched that video now and I see what you mean especially with the amount of leg space in the back there is ample room to put that row on a sliding mechanism to free up some additional boot space. Probably something that will get added in the future once customer feedback get through to Land Rover.

Saw the 90 today, loved it. Practicality isn’t it’s forte but I’m willing to work round it. The boot is bigger than I expected but the seats don’t fold flat or at least didn’t in the prototype which is poor show but I can live with it.
I did look at this base model 110 and very nearly enquired about it before I even went in to see the 90, it had only just arrived, but after seeing the 90 it’s the one for me. Click image to enlarge So order submitted and delivery expected early March. |

Very nice Did you go for the commercial 90? Strange that my dealership haven’t even given me a ETA for my 90 placed my order 2 or 3 weeks ago on a first edition. Be interesting to see who gets their defender first

No stuck with the station wagon, the 90 commercial wasn’t there.

Think I’d have the Series 1 in the background

That step in the floor is crying out for some sort of shelf or drawer unit to level it up with the folded seats. Darren

Do the rear seat squabs/ cushions lift up in the 90 to allow the seatbacks to fold into their place to give a flat load area (barring the step) like they do in the 110? Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed! |

Is there no storage compartment on the back of the driver and front passenger seats? Strange that they seem to be leaving little bits and pieces from the spec that are on the 110
