“Brilliant all-rounder that's very comfortable to drive. But the diesel engine needs more power. Overtaking anything other than a stationary object becomes dangerous!”

“This is the first time that I have bought a 4x4 and I rate the Discovery 3 as a very high quality car and it has been faultless. I cover a lot of motorway miles and even after 250-mile journey, I still arrive fresh. It even manages over 30 mpg, 33 being achieved on one long journey. The engine in particular gives a good performance and is very refined as is the ride comfort. I intend buying another when I change. As I have had no faults, and with 15,000 mile service intervals, I have not had any reason to contact the dealer but they keep me informed of various events etc. and are providing 50% off the price of my first service.”

“If this is the best of British Car Makers, I will be buying Eastern Block next time! For in excess of £42,000, it's been nothing but trouble, I will be getting rid of it before the warrenty expires as the thought of the repair bill would give me nightmares.”

“What can I say – I absolutely love it. It is simply the best car I have ever owned!”

“Overall a great car. Land Rovers are no nonsense and you know what you are buying - I just wish they were a little more reliable mechanically and slightly less thirsty.”

“Great car, very practical, quiet running and comfortable. For a diesel, though, its fuel consumption is way too high at an average 23 mpg.”
