That's right, we're talking about the Discovery Sport, which we tested a short while ago. For now, the changes are subtle, the kind that would appeal to most Land Rover customers.

The biggest add-ons are a set of RS600 wheels measuring 20x8.5-inches and painted in Platinum Silver. They complement the Disco Sport and add a sporty layer to its profile, together with the 275X40X20 low profile tires. Behind them sit the brake calipers painted in Liquid Red. No, the brakes aren't bigger, which is unfortunate.

Unfortunately, nothing else has been changed on the outside with the exception of the lettering on the clamshell hood and boot. Bummer!

The interior of the new Disco Sport has been re-crafted in Red Herringbone Leather. The design is typical of the Kahn brand and reminds us of the watch strap look employed by Citroen's DS5.

Kahn's package includes full upholstery of the front and rear seats, including the headrests and armrests done in quality quilted and perforated soft leather, door card center and steering wheel center hub in Alcantara, door card tops, dashboard plus center glove box in regular red leather.

Lastly, we see the British customizer has installed vented foot pedals in machined aluminum and door entry sill plates in that machined finish.

It's worth knowing that if you like what you see, Kahn will let you have the car for £46,875 with only 50 miles added for testing purposes. This 2.2 SD4 Ground Effects Edition. It's equipped with a 2.2-liter turbodiesel engine rated at 190 horsepower and 420 Nm of torque.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
