..and cant belive they didnt call it a freelander. Looks very similar, should have been the newer version IMHO.

Yeah I agree. Discovery has a better name tho. I've seen one or two not toooo bad from the front but still to decide if I like the back...

It's basically an attempt to combine both the freelander and discovery into one 'leisure' orientated segment of the land rover brand. Same way as there are now a few different range rover models. The disco sport is effectively a direct replacement for the old freelander.

They should have just called it the fat freelander.

My dad has ordered one. The 2.2 180bhp (SD4 maybe) one, should get it April I think.

Sounds ok, though I am not sure on the back end either.

Probably another squash back re-jig on the Gaylander/Evoke platform with no proper 4 WD.

Clue is stamped on the bonnet edge, but the front ends of the latest rangie and sport, although not identical are very similiar, it's a family thing, or the designer stuck for new ideas.
