Hmm. Looks nice? Hopefully it will take a 16" wheel. Those dubs won't get you too far.

Oh look, an FJ Cruiser with a LR badge!

The rimz are a fucking joke.

Had the same thought, looks a lot like an FJ. Not as bad as I would have feared, but I am never going to be the target market, so...

x3. not liking the looks. might as well give it a new name because it's not a Defender.

It looks like a Kia Soul on steroids

 

[RBBailey]

This could be a Kia, maybe a Rav4; it could be a CRV, or maybe one of those Hyundai things; and I suppose it could be like an Element, a Nissan, or a Suzuki.... The only thing it doesn't seem to resemble is one of those Land Rover Defender things.

Piece of fuck. What are those 22 inch wheels?

Timmy told me the truck was the best looking rover he had ever seen.

Saw this interesting bit posted by nashvillerover on another forum.

Rumor on the street- Tata's Land Rover Group CEO resigned this past Friday because the polls taken on the Concept DC100 came back at a 96% disapproval rating. The same rumor also states the head designer was given a week to turn in his resignation. The news reports state he resigned due to personal reasons- but the rumbling is it all centered around this cluster debacle of a truck design - wait - is that a truck design?

Tatas stock hit a 52 week low on Monday as the news spead. We may never see this truck as stated above!

TTM's stock price has been on a steady decline for a year, the Tata Nano was a huge flop. Jag-LR accounted for a huge percent of the company's revenue and has largely been turned around from the disasterous money pit it was when Ford owned it.

I highly doubt this guy's resignation has a thing to do with public perception of a 48-months-out concept vehicle 4 days after its unveiling.

Besides the fact that Kenny G designed the DC100 (same guy that designed the freelander).

Skip to 1:44.

That is the worst tie and jacket combo I have seen in years.

 

[teledan]

That makes me feel sad inside.
