Simon_CSK Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I am here on Holiday with my youngest son and my girlfriend by way of a joint celebration of my birthday and my divorce. (I knew my ex would make me happy one day) After being here for the Grand Prix and spending a few days sightseeing (and Landy spotting which drives everyone else mad!!) I saw this on the chain bridge. Wasn't sure what it was but managed to get my camera out and shoot of a few shots as I knew Land Rover used this camouflage technique to drive prototypes around. Imagine my surprise to open LRO which had been sitting in my case for 5 days and see images of this vehicle. A new model Range Rover apparently.

Shackleton Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 (I knew my ex would make me happy one day) That car looks very Porsche-esque down the flank to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverik Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Definitely a new Defender prototype.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landroversforever Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Yeah its a new RR Sport model I believe. I saw one earlier in the month at Cobham services. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveG Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Unlikely to be JLR if it's on Hungarian plates. More likely to be VAG or Mercedes who manufacture there in large numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honitonhobbit Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 I'm tempted to get that as a wrap on my 200 Disco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking for the quote about RR's hose down original interiors I found this, and judging by the F-Pace I'd say it's the car above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking Porsche but the exact vehicle image is in this months LRO with a Range Rover caption. Was just about to post the same, unlikely to be JLR. The whole point of those wraps is to confuse and obfuscate the shape. I’ll even throw in a curve ball of Suzuki, who also do a lot of manufacturing in Hungary… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landroversforever Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 This is the one I saw at Cobham services on the M25.... It had a Range Rover steering wheel inside, and according to the DVLA its registered as a Land Rover, registered 1st May 2016. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
