We were told on both the factory tour and the Gaydon tour that there will be a D5 on a totally new platform to share with the new RR and RRS. I have also been told by another LR person that the new RRS comes out first followed by new FL and then the all new D? 4/5.
As you say all hear say so will have to wait and see.
I posted over a year ago the new sport and maybe Disco would share its platform with the New RR and was laughed at on here... Told i was wrong!
indeed!  15.5MY XS in Corris Grey with Black & Almond leather

Yes but it is a 5+2, 2 small seat in the back not full size ones capable of carrying adults comfortably for long distances. Hence 5+2 and not calling it a 7 seater MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange

MY12 D4 HSE Nara Bronze Sold and gone
MY11 D4 HSE Stornaway Grey Sold and gone
D3 S spec Silver Sold and gone

Following the links from the OP - if you're going to claim something is a 'chassis testing mule' then why all the shots of the interior and none of the, er, chassis?

Interview: John Edwards – Land Rover boss
Edwards says about the next Discovery — due in 2014/15 — “It is important that it has its own distinctive styling but it will continue to share some design cues with the Range Rover.
“It will definitely have seven seats, that is an important part of the Disco’s DNA.â€
