What a tragedy...

Well where should I start... I bought the Land Rover at 85K miles, drove it to about 110K miles and then decided to trade it in after about $6000 of repairs to the hydraulic shocks, and other things I cannot remember due to the horrible memories being blocked from my memory that are just too painful to think about. The car was tremendous fun for off roading, but please do not buy unless you work in the medical field or a CEO.
A Great Machine to Love

I owned a Discovery Series II (SE7) for two years. It was one of the most satisfying vehicles I have ever owned. This was a truely rugged machine. LR made the vehicle tough, I had my family (two young sons and pregnate wife) in it when a drunk driver ran us off the road (it wound up rolling because of a blown tire) but the rugged chasis and roll cage along with seatbelts saved everyone. We came out with a few scratched and bruises...but walked away! I would have bought another one, except I just needed a larger vehicle now and the larger 03 design is not out yet.

What I can say is that a Discovery will treat you how you treat it. Baby it, do ALL regular maintenance, especially oil changes and checking the coolant. 80% of head gasket replacements are due to failure to change the oil. If you’re in the market, look for one with a good service history, preferably a one owner and that has not been abused over the years. Also be sure to check the frame, especially the rear quarter as sat and dirt build up back there and rot it out. Find yourself a good mechanic who works on European cars and you’ll find that repair cost and parts are not as obnoxious as everyone makes it seem - many mechanics know the stigma that Rovers cost an arm and a leg to fix, it is simply not true, Discovery 2’s are actually very straightforward and easy to work on - most mechanics just take advantage of the stigma. Parts for my Nissan Xterra are more extensive than half the Rover parts! If you maintain it, it is a strong, sturdy truck that is excellent in the snow, off road and for getting around town. And, there’s something about them that is just fun to drive - nothing like it out there! But, select one carefully!

NOT a well built vehicle

This vehicle is not well built AT ALL! All sorts of problems...lock actuators,leaks,crappy cup-holders. This one has the ACE pkg and it whines like a scared cat. Replaced the ACE pump and it still screams. Wipers don't work half of the time and I could go on. You can't find anyone except a dealer over an hour away to work on them and they act like it's no big deal. I run an import car dealership and sell Honda,Mazda,Nissan and Suzukis. All of these have better build quality if you can believe that. The switches seem to have been put in the weirdest places. NO thinking person could have designed these locations.

We have had problems from day one. Car has never been off road. Car has never been in the snow. We have had major electrical problems ranging from seat motors, engine wiring harness, brakes and rotors after just 20,000 miles. Oxygen sensors, headers, etc., ignition switch failure. My wife drives the car around town. It's the most unreliable car I have ever driven or heard about. Gas Hog. Horrible ride on freeway. Scared to take it off road for fear it will fall apart more than it has. Engine is 1960's technology!
