This likely won't be interesting to anybody but me. The lighting isn't even good... BUT, I was parking yesterday, saw a new Discovery, and had to park next to it to take some comparison pictures.
I have to say, I still like the LR4 more, but I do think if they just kept with the same basic body but maybe rounded off that top rear corner of the LR4 they would have not alienated so many of us! But I'm preaching to the choir, here.
In any case, side by side pics below. I'm at normal height. Was surprised how much taller the LR4 is.
I have to say, the new Discovery wasn't even attention grabbing in the lot. Very plain looking car. You see an X5 or a Q7 and it stands out. I would have passed right by this had I not known what it was, and even so I had to double check to make sure it wasn't a Disco Sport. I'm sure folks will find ways to toughen these up a bit with nice racks, sliders and such, but this stock one was quite bland looking.
