See my first Discovery sport today..

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

 

[Littelwill]

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...

 

[FlyingPete]

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.

Not really, see some differences but I would not know which is which.

They are the same at the front just about except the badges.

...so is the full fat Disco 4 still living on or has the disco name been downgraded?

 

[Littelwill]

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

[goonarmy]

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.
