England 2013 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 HSE Auto Orkney GreyDiscovery 4

It looks great.

Looks like theres much less roll on corners. 8)

Also proves that the D4 is Ideal for fly fishing Very Happy

Was the car in off road height ?? as when on the road as it looked a bit of a gap under the arches.

I wonder if the ride height will reduce at a lower speed than the current D3 ??? Would make it even more stable at higher motorway speeds.

United Arab Emirates 2009 LR3 4.4 V8 HSE Auto Stornoway GreyLR3

Just watched the videos and realised that the D4 has the old sharkfin PTI antenna up on the roof.
Thought LR had finally done away with it as it is not used on the 09 D3. Any thoughts

Not sure about the LED's after seeing them on in the video. They look a bit OTT like that chrome mascara you see on some of the big SAABs.
