Land Rover debuts for Birmingham

28 April 2004: The all-new Discovery 3 TDV6 will make its world debut at this year's Sunday Times Motor Show Live in Birmingham in May, joining the V8 petrol powered vehicle unveiled in New York earlier this month.

Also making its debut at Land Rover's home show will be a proposed Freelander rally limited edition, inspired by the reconnaissance vehicles (above) used by Colin McRae and Carlos Sainz during the 2001 World Rally Championship and based on the Freelander Sport.

Depending on public reaction and interest in the vehicle, it could go on sale from September 2004.
