Oh no, I hope they don't turn it into another crossover that is shaped like a worn bar of soap. I quickly ordered a 2013 when I found out the V8 would be extinct. Maybe I will need to order a late 2014 to replace the LR3. I really like all the space the current style provides. And I like the rugged unibody on frame which will likely become just a unibody to cut weight.

And if it is being completely redesigned and re-engineered, it will be a couple of years before they work out all the initial "bugs" and it is safe to buy one that will be reliable long-term.

If nothing else, let's hope the new Discovery "family" includes engines choices such as a diesel V6 here in the US.

If last sketch is an indication, then the box is gone. Too bad.

That line drawing has me concerned with the direction they are going from the classic shape.

Nice job on the 'shop, but that looks hideous!

Ick. Looks like something Cadillac would sell. I think the value of all our LR4s just appreciated.

LOL, nice work. Wait and see, that pic will spread around and end up on some auto rumor site.
