Doesn't look quite so bad at the rear squarer on as it did in the other leaked pictures. It's still a bit of a rump though.

I assume the the angled rear bumper is to increase the exit angle from slopes

I wonder if it benefits from the FFRR's increased wading depths too ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

I, as were a lot of people, was pretty miffed when I saw the leaked images. However, these "official" images do make the car look much less rounded and I'm starting to like what I see. Roll on the reveal this evening..

It still does not have the aggressive front the RRS should have, the rear well for other reasons...inside remains important Mike

I dislike the black and silver plastic panels in the lower front and rear valances. It just reminds me of the rubbish we saw in "urban off roader" cars like this (yes, it's a Rover Streetwise!):

2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed
