Kia Soul on steroids Big Cry

My fall back replacement vehicle if I don’t like New Defender has been the Kia e-Niro for quite some time and my trusty TDi300 90 that passed its MOT again with no issues yesterday, can last a whole lot longer! Got a quarterly payment for my FIT from solar panels of £290 yesterday too and that would pay for lots of e-Niro charging! 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!

It's not hard to find LR based vehicles in the business and you have to wonder why they chose a competitors vehicle - was it a better choice for them than allowing a previous gen vehicle on the shoot and suffer the obvious side by side comparisons?

I think it is much more likely they just selected a film company based on their bid for the job and didn't even give a thought to the camera car. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

So, first official photo of the Disco3-front-grilled Defender Whistle


Yes the one already posted above, looks great! Not my choice for colour but heritage lovers will most likely like it.

If this is not a troll i don't know what is, nice try matey Wink You forgot the film crew range rovers from topgear.
Having said that, fact wise the camera set up on the cruiser looks about 100 grand more expensive then these makeshift setups(which in themselves are not easy or cheap, suspension and most of the car has to be modified. LR more than likely put it to private tender or chose an agency based on previous work with LR or their previous work in general, the cars they use would not have even been given a second thought, rather the equipment and capability to film in remote kazakhstan

Saw a Kia Soul EV yesterday, and it does look extraordinarily like it - just smaller. Since JLR were threatening to sue Ineos for their design, shouldn't Kia be looking to its lawyers? Now left.
