Looks like a 'new mini' has mated with a Freeblander.

Would it really need to be a 4x4 on any of the models bearing in mind the target audience

Defenders and possibly Discos yes, as LR were one of the few 'real deal' 4x4's. Perhaps, not so now.

Sad thing is it'll probably sell quite well, to people who for the most part could not tell if 4WD was engaged or not. If Poshbox has done the inside and its important then you probably won't find aspiring customers hitching up trailers to the dump let alone to a rib... Maybe a a Seadoo or or Knobski, I'd best stop before JK consigns this to the WTF oubliet.

It's not really a Range Rover - the fact that 'posh' is promoting it is enough to cost them customers too.

Association with VB would put me off going to look at one.
Conran with the Discovery - inspired
Beckham with the RR - crass

Exactly. Their idea of 'off-road' is when they mount the kerb on the Old King's Road, SW3!
