Default 2013 Range Rover Caught without disguise

Someone spotted the new 2013 Range Rover uncovered in Land Rover garage in Europe. I won't name the source as it's obvious who found it.

Does look sleek. It's got a little of that Bentley SUV concept and Ford Flex in the body

I am a little disappointed. Just doesn't look expensive at all. Too much Ford F-L-E-X!

i have never been a fan of the Range Rover. They are horrendously unreliable according to consumer reports. Why would anyone buy these things??!!

I personally think it looks ugly compares to the current model.

I think the Ford Flex has to much Range Rover.

Cant really see this design going anywhere else. An evolution of the classic Range Rover. Still looks great to me.

Not a fan. Lost that aggressive flair and looks more like a generic family hauler.
