    LR5 Release Updates?

    I am going to send you a PM. I may buy my mom a RRS or Disco Sport.

    LR5 Release Updates?

    I am actually excited that Land Rover is making strides, even though we may not like all the new designs. I do think they need to evolve and change, but I just hope they stick with some classic stuff, which I think will still be in their DNA, especially in the Defender. The renditions of the...

    LR5 Release Updates?

    WOW! I think we know exactly what it will look like!

    LR5 Release Updates?

    That probably means a lot of long-wheel base models. China loves them.

    LR4 Re-purchase (2011 to 2016)

    Thanks! :-) It's been quite a journey over the past couple years! I will say that anything you do to these things requires a lot of patience, tools, and access to a welder. HAHA! :) I have a lot of photos all over the place on here and my instagram (that's about all I can handle for the...

    LR5 Release Updates?

    Exactly. Though, I suspect you will see them as loaner cars. :-(

    LR5 Release Updates?

    The new Discovery Sport is the replacement for the LR2, which is no longer in production (though you may see some left overs on the lot and as loaner cars - yuck). From what I heard, the Discovery (replacement for the LR4) will be the biggest, then you have the Discovery Sport, and then there...

    LR4 Re-purchase (2011 to 2016)

    Welcome back, jamgolf! I certainly remember you. I also had a 2011 and then got a 2013.

    LR5 Release Updates?

    I completely agree with Umberto. The Defender will really make or break some of the hard-core followers. I posted previously about my conversation with a LR employee who was recently at a meeting at the LR headquarters in Solihull and saw the upcoming new "Discovery". The spy shots are exactly...

    LR5 Release Updates?

    I think they mentioned a more dedicated off-road package on the new Discovery, but honestly I think (and hope) they will offer such a thing when the Defender comes to the US in 2018. I am really putting a lot of hope in the Defender, as that is the only way I will get a new Land Rover.

    2016 LR4 prices paid for lease

    I know this is not answering the question, but I leased my 2011 LR4 HSE because I was going back to Land Rover after a long hiatus and was nervous it was a piece of crap - like my 1999 Discovery. :-) For me, it was a way to give it a try without buying it, even though I typically do not lease...

    Showoff Your LR4

    Still Clean I snapped a few cool photos. November and December will be months in which I am hitting the trails hard, so hope to post some actual action shots out in the wilderness and mountains.

    Can Anyone Identify These LR4 Rock Sliders?

    Hello Everyone, Yes, that's my old LR4. They are GN Vehicle Protection rock sliders out of the UK. Unfortunately, they no longer seem to be in business or have a website? They were good, but still not like the Tactical 4x4. Regards, David

    Showoff Your LR4

    Haha!!! Love it. Doubt worry, the shine will be short lived. :-) I'm just enjoying it since it hasn't looked this nice in 2 years.

    Showoff Your LR4

    Well, it's been a while since I posted anything, but I finally had my LR4 thoroughly washed and for the first time in 2 years, clay barred, properly waxed, and sealed. I have never seen it so shiny and I am almost embarrassed to drive it! :-)

    How to change an LR4 tire with a Hi Lift Jack?

    I agree with jwest on everything, you really do need some proper jacking points. This is where the Tactical 4x4 sliders, Kaymar rear bumper (it has 2 built-in hi lift points), and front steel bumpers are great, it makes using the hi lift a lot easier (and safer!!!).

    LOL. Discovery Sport Named One of CR's 4th Worst Cars in 2015

    I also sat in a G63 with special designo leather package and it was very nice, but not nearly as comfortable as I thought. You know I love the G, but it's a weird sitting position and kind of cramped if you are tall. The back seats are pretty useless. It's funny because my mom has a Lexus...

    LOL. Discovery Sport Named One of CR's 4th Worst Cars in 2015

    This was a very interesting thread and I agree with many of your comments, though honestly I don't have much experience with gadgets and technology. I will say my 2013 is definitely even a bit behind (technology wise) than the 2010 ML550 I once had for a little while. I just took a look at...

    LR5 Release Updates?

    I always feel the same way!!! I have looked at Land Cruisers off and on over the last year and there are things I love, but overall, it just feels so different to me.

    LR5 Release Updates?

    I agree that it will likely be sharp looking, but a lot of iconic type folks would probably not want it, so maybe the Defender will make us happy. :-) I know what you mean about being not as rugged as you would like to think, sometimes I feel the same. I have gone back and forth with jwest...

    LR5 Release Updates?

    Actually, the only thing he knew about the Defender was that the design has been signed off, it likely would not be built in the UK, and there will be about 3 trim levels....... 130, 110, and 90.

    LR5 Release Updates?

    He actually spends part of the year at corporate. I am not sure how much of this is accurate, but he has been right in the past. He is the one that told me that the SCV6 would come in 2014, way before the forum debate ;) He also said he knows nothing of the Defender, it's very hush hush.

    LR5 Release Updates?

    He told me there is a split tailgate, but it seemed like a smaller, more rounded cargo area. It also had an automatic tailgate lift, much like the RR. He said they did not get a chance to really explore the interior, and I forgot what it looked like in the concept, but he said it was more of...

    LR5 Release Updates?

    Hi there! I am not sure how accurate this is, but a GM friend of mine at a dealership was just in the UK at a meeting with Jaguar/Land Rover and was able to see the final form of the "LR5", which will be called just a "Discovery". He said it looks just like the Discovery vision concept that Land...

    Wow, that was some good life! :) What are you getting next?
