I've actually got one of these and have done so quite recently as I had traded a car which were surplus to my needs plus cash for something more practable as well as to tow my boat in future one I have finished on some current out of water maintanace The nievaty of such of deal to begin with was one that included approximately a 1500 km round road trip just to aquire as I live in New Zealand and drove from Auckland to Wellington and Back and done so with in 24hrs Being a V8 in comparision to the V6 Diamante© sedan I had traded the previously anticipated gas mileage were up there unlike the performance of the engine itself which we're an embarresment to say the least to be even called such Updated Review Amazingly I still have this Vehicle Only because I hardly ever drive maybe to get weekly groceries now and then and of course just tow boat locally to boat ramp about five minutes away It's just too much of a pig on gas to use as an everyday wagon as I much prefer to either drive my light diesel truck or even better still motorbike It's a great tower how ever and one time used to pull out a tree stump which in comparison to my brothers Mitsi RVR Awd trying beforehand and not even making a dent were an effortless task But then again were to be kind of expected but surprisingly as I were to find not with such ease But other than that can't really give a fair review as I hardly ever use other wise as I only really bought this vehicle to begin with for one intended purpose and were mainly for towing my boat for which I am satisfied even if it is only a five minute drive

I Have had non stop issues with my Dicovery. 3 out of 5 doors only open from the inside.the rear moonroof will not open anymore,the front leaks, the upper rear side window leaks. Buttons broke on seats and horn, heater display does not light. My driver side seat heater does not work. Leather Seat cracked on side. Just replaced thermostat and waterpump, And the AC still does not work and you have to go 80 mh down a highway for the heat to heat up and when your stoped at a stop light, it gets cold. keep replacing windshield whiper arms. Rattles!!! Who knows where that comes from, We havent been able to figure it out. OH YA and my favorite, it sounds like ther is a waterfall in my dash board ???

**TAKE MY ADVICE: DO NOT BUY**
absolutely horrible car! very unreliable. Bought it off a guy 5 months ago and now everything went wrong with it. The radiator blew which lead to waaay more problems. Total cost of repairs cost more then the car is worth. It is horrible, I mean HORRIBLE on gas! I barely drive 8 miles to work and I have to put gas in it everytime. Please don't make the mistake I made and buy one! Land Rover stinks!
okay
Plus, the car rides stiff and has little body roll, very functional. Minus-wow-expensive to repair and gas mileage.
Built for Bad Weather, Not Comfort
Great off-road and less so on-road, I very much enjoyed owning and driving the Discovery despite its flaws in MPG, inconvenient interior amentities, wimpy wiper mechanism, and poor on-road performance. A funny anomoly: the vehicle can plow through 4 feet of water or snow (and I did both!), but the wiper motor breaks unless the windshield has been cleared of all snow & ice!
