Perhaps they'd have sorted the styling by then?

.....meanwhile, I'll be shunning the GLK as it competes with THIS

By 2010 I would imagine that demand for SUV's will be in free-fall.

I'm sure it would sell well if MB pitched it at US pricing (under $40K) but at typical UK pricing it'll just look too expensive.

VW Tiguan is doing quite well apparently - and there's a diesel auto.

Yes as SUVs exist now, but Land Rover are looking at creating their greenest car yet (not that hard I grant you) with hybrid etc. The LRX - or Freelander Sport as they're thinking, will be Tiguan sized.

Yes,
They(Mercedes) thinks they are going to push that "Gawd Awful" looking
GLK off on us in the U.S. with the 320CDI motor (instead of the 220CDI).
At about 20,000 L.
'Cannot wish them any good luck...Stylist should move back to Matamoros.

Again as the R-class I quite like it

Hmmmm, sorry, LRX walks all over it in concept form....I hope they don't water it down too much. GLK quite awkward looking, no?

That would be excellent if they engineer the GLK for right-hand drive. Not because I like the GLK (I have eyes, you know ). No, it would be excellent because it would mean at long last that we could get a 4x4 C-class. :bannana:

That surely must be the ugliest 4x4 by far. What a pile of pig****

Personally I like the looks of it. It looks rugged, tough, macho and all the things a 4x4 should look unlike the Land Rover offering which looks as though it is trying to pretend to be a spacecraft or a sports coupe. Stupid IMO.
