I think Penguin that some have involved the comparison of the RRS whilst missing the point about what the Forbes list is saying.

It's all about design and from that perpective I don't think that there are many such bold vehicle designs greater than the D3 ....the RRS is a lovely looking car ..yes ....but the D3 really looks as though it was designed for 'Moonbase Alpha' 8) Wink 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

How can an RRS not be in that list and a DIII is in ???

Except for the body, it IS the same car Rolling Eyes


Because this particular poll was about design, not about how capable a vehicle is or what platform its based on! Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

No, not really!

French cars don't sell in the US at all! And they all look slightly bizarre because they employee designers like this...



German cars tend to be soulless pieces of efficiency - though I'm surprised the New Beetle didn't get in the list though, its usually grouped with the New Mini (which IS German remember?) as an iconic vehicle Confused Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
