I doubt it, they are selling far too well at the moment. Why would they waste money on a facelift while sales are so strong. I reckon another 18 months - 2 years before they will facelift it. Of course I often talk a load of CR

P so who knows!

Usually LR platforms are for long period of time in the market. They could make a minor changes like 07 to 08 MY, and a mayor face lift around 2010. 3 years before the lunch of a next platform. That’s my prediction.
My favourites “SUV” are:
RRS, DISCO3, Mercedes G Class, Audi A6 Allroad 2007, Cayenne 2008. But no question: RANGE ROVER SPORT is the way to go!

Unlikely to see anything major for a few years but there is talk of a 3 door version of the RRS. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

I think we can all agree that our babies are among the most beautifully designed cars around. In the SUV class no other car come even close IMO. But who really designed it? Is it an inhouse LR project or have some external design studio drawn the lines?

No, no; he is not captain Jean-Luc Picard

GEOFF UPEX
This is our genius, wit some other talented designers.
He is not anymore on LR. We hope, his creations still part of LR team.

Whilst he is designing he likes to ensure the creases in his trousers remain crisp!
