Hi all,

Has anyone heard about a new FL model coming out in November 2006?

Apparently it is quite different :) and not petrol :(

Cheers

There was a picture on the forum somewhere. Looks like a cross between a RR and a Discovery

There are some pictures in this months Autocar magazine. It looks good I think certainly a good progression from the first shape.

Apparently it has a longer wheelbase than current model. The image in Autocar shows similar styling to the new Discovery. Extensive changes to suspension and power plant also mooted, and even the mention of it being a seven seater.
