No, you're not the only person in the country, there are at least two of us!

I think it's mainly a female thing. There isn't a single female in my whole family who isn't on it. And no, I don't care if that offends any transgender people.
jrule, what was it, the suspense is killing me. Now left.

Doesn't that look more like the replacement RRS or Disco SVX? Hard to gauge from the photo but it looks too large to be a Defender.

Could also be an SVR version of the Disco Sport, which is also supposed to be in the works.

At least the number plate if it's a Disco looks better Thumbs Up


update...not much to go on





Looks like a disco at the back but could hide any running gear I guess

They'll be so much fake bodywork on the test bed that they could stick the plate anywhere. Wink

The sad thing is that the new Disco plate placement is slowly growing on me (like fungus!); at least it sets it apart from the other SUVs on the road.

I agree! Shocked I think JLR have brainwashed me, every new model that comes out I don't like it, then within a few months I'm loving it Shocked The D5 SVX is top of my list atm. Dread to think what it will cost, all I know is I won't be able to afford it Big Cry James

I'm not keen on the Velar and the more I see, the less I like; however, the Discovery has definitely grown on me and I think they've hit the nail on the head with the SVX visually.

The Disco plate placement is ruined by the stupid oversize plates the dealers insist on fitting. A normal size one should look better I think. A square plate might look even better but not sure if there is room. Somehting similar happened with the Rover 75, someone thought it was a good idea for theplate be huge to fit the space. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS
