The Middle Eastern market is very important for Land Rover, and they need to make sure everything can cope with the desert heat, dust and wind before launching a new model. What new model?

Why, the new 2014 Range Rover Sport of course. A full convoy of prototypes was recently spotted in the desert near Dubai (Dubai Investments Park, on the Jebel Ali Lehbab Road), the spotter says.

Since this is the closest sighting of the Sport yet, we can show you a glimpse of what the sporty grille looks like, peaking from behind the fake Volvo look. The styling is quite bold, compared to the elegant full-size Range Rover.

The platform for the all-new Range Rover Sport will be borrowed from its big brother, meaning an aluminum monocoque chassis will be in place. The engine range will stat with the base 260 PS V6 turbo diesel, continue with a 340 PS V8 diesel and be topped off by the familiar V8 supercharged motor.

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.
