2010 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Santorini Black

I was the same (preferred the old shape) but it's like the new shape Audi TT, once you get used to it you can't understand why you never preferred it in the first place (I now prefer the new shape TT and RRS front).

Plus the new lights are much better Thumbs Up Thumbs Up ============

2012 - dearly departed, sadly missed.. to return in late 2013 with a new TDV8!

Netherlands 2005 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Buckingham Blue

Original design of course! +1 Thumbs Up

With this exteriour ùpgrade`it is again proven that improving a winning design if very very difficult. Confused
Of course it looks more modern, but does that makes it a better design? SW

Sometimes it is not enough to do our best;
sometimes we must do what is required.

England 2009 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Santorini Black

Just feels like the new front has lost a little of its presence for me, it's a little too similar to other stuff on road and other stuff from LRs stable, just IMHO

That's not to say that the new front isn't still good to look at Thumbs Up Have i got the busted controller?!?!!?

2012 with the subtle rear change on the tailgate looks nicer as well.

Don't forget the new style lights they are pretty striking on the road.

Hey that bog standard one is mine.

I think I prefer the new shape, but the miss us reckons the old front end is better, and I sometimes have to agree.

Both are great cars though 2011 TDV6 Luxury - Baltic Blue, Ebony with Contrast Stitch, RSE, Stormers, Towpack.

I wasn't sure about the new shape when it came out. But, like most of these things, once it's been around a while it definately makes the old front end look dated by comparison. The new lights are miles nicer than the originals and as for the interior, there is just no comparison, the new style is way way better in every sense. 2013 Discovery HSE Luxury - 3.0 SDV6 - Santorini Black
