The former-Spice-Girl-turned-fashion-designer was appointed as the new creative design director for Range Rover at the brands 40th anniversary celebration in London Thursday. While at the bash, Beckham showed off her dignified fashion style by wearing an on-trend nude dress from her own collection, paired with tan Brian Atwood pumps. Beckham, 35, will lend her "posh" sense and advise interior design on future special editions of the car, starting with the Special Edition Range Rover Evoque, a lightweight, greener sport utility-coupe. "She's established herself in her own right as a designer and she has some interesting perspectives and she's owned Range Rovers for years and years so it will be interesting to get an outside point of view, somebody that's really aware of the luxury goods sector of the market which is really important to us," said Range Rover Design Director Gerry McGovern. Back in 2008, Beckham launched her own ready-to-wear collection that includes ultra feminine sheath and shift dresses. Defined by sharp tailoring and body-conscious silhouettes, her designs became an instant hit with fashion critics and are often seen worn by celebs on the red carpet. [/release] No fucking way. This is a Range Rover: [img]http://www.expeditionexchange.com/safetydevices/rover1.jpg[/img] That shit she's been working on isn't.
[b]SHIT.[/b] Fuck the Oil spill, this here is a REAL disaster.
Whichever committee which thought of turning a king of offroaders into a gas-guzzling ugly school run soccer mom car with lack of headroom and boot space in the back should be terminated [editline]f[/editline] Maybe it wouldn't look that stupid if it wasn't so goddamn high off the ground for no reason / trying to be two things at once though
What the shitting fuck, who thought this was okay?

Can't wait for the frilly pink side skirtings

What a coincidence that Top Gear was demanding that the old Range Rover should come back today.
Why would you appoint a feminine fashion designer as a creative designer for a company like this? How does that seem like a good idea?
[QUOTE=Saxon;23117159]What a coincidence that Top Gear was demanding that the old Range Rover should come back today.[/QUOTE] Yeah, except this isn't the old Range Rover. It's no wonder I see so many people driving old-old cars now. The newer models are lacking in one thing. Manliness.
They don't look bad, but they don't look like Range Rovers.
Range Rovers are supposed to be a niche vehicle for people who need something to take on rugged outdoor terrains, not some BS city SUV with a billion cupholders and the inability to drive on anything bumpier than gravel. Angry
she seems like an "idea guy" OH HAI GUYS, I WANT A CAR TO LOOK GOOD WITH MY ELEGANT DRESS DO THAT FOR ME"
[QUOTE=mysteryman;23119507]she seems like an "idea guy" OH HAI GUYS, I WANT A CAR TO LOOK GOOD WITH MY ELEGANT DRESS DO THAT FOR ME"[/QUOTE] Yeah, it doesn't look like an off-roader at all. And that's terrible.
She can fuck right off.
Fucking shit, there goes my favorite line of automobiles. [b]FUCKING.[/b] [b]SHIT.[/b]
Oh my god, Range Rover is trying to [i]DIVERSIFY?[/i] It's neither bad nor hard to believe.
range rover got shit after 2002
It's like the company wanted to commit suicide in the most gruesome way possible.
Range Rover, I am dissapoint... Why? [B]WHYYYY?![/B] :britain: [editline]06:21AM[/editline] What's next, Trinny and Susannah working at Jaaaaaaguar?? :'(
Good thing I've still got my two Range Rovers and my Discovery. Something tells me the used and new ones are going to start disappearing.
From that picture, it looks like a new Kia Sorento. [IMG]http://imgur.com/PCEtm.jpg[/IMG]
This is just plain retarded.

Well I can see the S.A.S moving to a new manufacturer.
To be fair the range rover isn't much of an offroad vehicle these days, anyway.

Didn't Top Gear talk about this?
Fuck, just as the original designer died too.
