Default So..the Britts are designing better cars lately. Sign of the apocalypse?

We've all seen the newer style Jags that look more like a mix of infinit's and aston martins. But never had I thought that Land Rover would make any sort of come back into modern market. They had been the incredibly expensive luxury brand when I was growing up, but never really appealed to my eyes.

This new Landrover LRX (Looks like to be badged as the Range Rover Evoque for 2012) most certainly won't be the cheapest car landrover has ever made. But to me is the most beautiful.

There are a lot of "concept" vehicle pictures, hopefully if someone else can find better one's of the actual car you can get a better look.

Are you serious? The new ones all look like crap. They've ruined the brands.

Guys, compare it to the rolling boxes of chrome and aluminum they've been rolling out and yes, I think it looks a ton better.

Too much of the early rectangular shape to that car. And for 50 grand, I need something to love.

I see your opinion but, I think its a good looking car (I being the keyword).

*edit*

Which one are you saying looks like a truck Deeerp?

It's a concept rendering. I'm sure they look similar.
