The 2009 Range Rover Sport looks like it's getting a slightly revised face. After undergoing minor cosmetic surgery, the Sport comes out with grillework that's reminiscent of the Land Rover LR2's as well as a new front bumper. Out back and along the sides, the SUV seems to be unchanged compared to the current model. One of Brenda Priddy's clandestine operatives snagged the freshened Ranger Rover Sport frolicking undisguised somewhere in Europe where it looks cold and snowy. As for when it'll be shown to the public, who knows? Geneva's just around the corner, though, so we'll have our gang keep an eye out for it when they're not eyeballing Renaults or noshing on good chocolate and tasty Lake Geneva perch filets.

And you can choose Urdo language for the navigation system.
+ Free pack of Samboosa with every Range Rover. :dev:

You can notice that the front grill is smaller now and front bumper is uglier now.

I doubt very much that Tata will want to change the design team in either of their new brands...they are about raising their brand, not making other things into Tata.

Personally I am underwhelmed by this makeover. I liked the look of the current model (and actually the one before it too), but the new shape to me looks softer and cheaper somehow. It's OK, and if course it's pure Landrover...styling that fits right into the rest of the range (no Tata influence...these people are not stupid!). But to me it makes it looks a bit less special.

I'd still have one though...:angel:
