4 pages of CGI pics and techy stuff of L405 - looks like they just scaled up a 5 Door Evoque for their guesstimate of what it will look like - FFE? Full Fat Evoque They even left the style 6 alloys of the Dynamic and Prestige Evoque on it

They reckon TDv6 and V6 Petrol, TDv8 and V8 Petrol and current S/C to be carried over, 450kgs less weight due to mainly aluminium and plastic body. Looks like they guess that the Magneride will take over from the air suspension (even more weight saving and less to go wrong)

It's not worth buying the rest of the issue for so just pop into WH Smith for 10 minutes and read one on the shelf and put the £3 towards your L405:whistle:  2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

I always browse them before i buy these days Scarey - I haven't bought a Land Rover specialist mag for at least a year but I've read them all to see if there was anything worth buying them for In the last 6 months they haven't sold me one as not one of them had a review of the Evoque worth reading and What Cat? and Autocar had far better reading than LRE/LRO/LRW/LRE. Today I consider the specialist LR mags only of any value if you want to dismantle and rebuild an old Series Landy which they all seem to do on a monthly basis, there is next to nothing about the cars produced since 2000. 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

The Photoshop in this month's Car Magazine looks like it's based around the camouflaged test cars.

Surprising and disappointing if there is no height-adjustable suspension.

I sincerely hope it looks nothing like that. What the hell is that?!

I agree that the artist's impression is just awful, but the shape of the camouflaged cars don't look much like it.

I quite like it. Wheels are too big though.

Wheels too big!!!!!!!!!!


Cant be............. Ever..............

I think I prefer the Autocar impression to the one in CAR magazine ...
