Car Forum / Land Rover Cars / October 2004Just seen the new Disco in the flesh
Just nipped to the local dealer for a new badge & they had one there. It's bloody horrible from all angles except from the front. The interior did look quite nice to be honest. To be honest It looks like a transit van with windows in. Might take a bit of getting used to! Nige >Just nipped to the local dealer for a new badge & they had one there.

My first thought was that Ford had accidentally created a 4wd version of thier Transit Connect courier van. Alex >>Just nipped to the local dealer for a new badge & they had one there.

I remember when the Disco came out, it was a natural progression from the RRC (even though it wasn't meant to replace it) This thing, apart from the money aspect (too expensive) is just a dog to look at. Hope it drives better than it looks. After making a vehicle like the new Range Rover, how can they get styling so wrong? The new RR is one of the finest machines on the road, pretty good off it too I believe! Lets hope it does ell well & is reliable enough to drag LR up a few notches.

You're not actually suggesting that the new RR looks good are you? I suppose that It's a matter of taste - not mine! > > After making a vehicle like the new Range Rover, how can they get > styling so wrong?

Still looks better than the Disco 3. P.

The RRC has a sort of timeless style that is still sort of 'cool' (hate the word, but you know what I mean) The interior of the P38 isn't too bad, the new one is stunning inside, outside it just looks 'right' to me. The overall proportions look right, the D3 is a mess on wheels. It's all a matter of taste! Nige >>>You're not actually suggesting that the new RR looks good are you?

Havent been in a new Range Rover 'on road' yet but have been driven round the Land Rover Experience course at Bluewater and it was superb off road, would love to have one. As for the new Discovery its just soooo ugly. Hope they dont do something too drastic for the new defender when it comes out.
