Should look good in Alaska White..................................

Good my next new car will be due in 2010. A 4.0l TDv8 in a small lighteweight Land Rover should be fun on and offroad and lets hope that they make a proper basic offroad version with the full transfer box and coil springs with huge wheel articulation, Landies of late have moved too far away from the basic off-road tool into the luxo executive barge and Defender is getting very long in the tooth and too expensive for an engine and 4 wheels with a take-away meal tray fixed on top. AND they are going to have to start building cars that can be afforded by the residents of Mumbai and Kolcutta

Also I would like a Landie that will fit into my garage for a change so I don't use loads of extra diesel while the car warms up on a frosty morning.
Come on Land Rover, a utility, inexpensive version of a sub Freelander car would really appeal to those who buy ancient Defenders and this could be it! If Suzuki can still sell 1000's of stripped out Vitara vans why can't LR A Carbon Footprint is the mark a lump of coal makes when it's dropped on the ground.

It might make it into production............................... but will it stay watertight? I have a colleague who has a Mrecedes A Class with the multisection sunroof and that has never been completely watertight since he bought the car new. Mercedes even replaced the entire roof but it still leaks at the panel joins A Carbon Footprint is the mark a lump of coal makes when it's dropped on the ground.

It's all still in concept mode, I'm sure it'll look more RRS-ish once it gets onto the production line. I'd expect the roofline to be a tad higher too - looks a bit restrictive for those of a lanky nature like me

Why so small, would be great on RRS size. And what happened to the Stormer?

(Pardon my not so updated info).

So the RRS is the son of the Stormer!

Seriously, would be great if they make a production Stormer. They don't know what a big market they are missing.
