I take Goonery's point, but feel that the style has been badly compromised by trying to carry over too much of the substructure of the R50 (especially the bulkhead) and share too many pressings with the 3 door (especially the standard length front doors). It must have been very frustrating for the designers involved.

Check the pictures of the concept car from a year or so ago and see what I mean.

Even so, it's good to see the range expanding again.

Unintimated and I'm back!!
