this is definately a head turner and quite possibly the best looking vehicle of all the suv's. That's where it ends the interior space is not friendly for even the smallest of people. All the instruments are so ergonomically poor, you have to be a contortionist just to reach the door handle. the car has no power to speak of and whines more than a school girl when you start it up. I think its the a.c. but can't be sure. The only thing i know for sure is that the english should stick to tea and crumpets and leave the car building to japan and germany.

handling of this was good, Traction was excellent, Power was poor, Service from the MFG was unresponsive. Make sure that if you are towing that the Dealer hooks up a wiring harness. If you get any check engine lights make sure you get the codes and find out what they are. The Factory made me come back 6 times to replace the intake manifold, and over a month to fix the CD player. Every time you get in and start the unit you are reminded of the terrible placement of the ignition Key. Just could not wait to pay $80.00 dollars US for a pair of wiper Blades, the Dealer comment was that they are good wiper blades! I don’t mind paying more for quality, but this is an insult

Surprisingly good Disco

I would rate it as an excellent vehicle with some faults. The Disco provides a very comfortable, smooth, stable ride. It corners well and I did not find any major quality issues with it as far as materials, paint, assembly. I rate the overall driving experience of the Disco above the Ford Bronco, Ford Explorer, Jeep Grand Cherokee and a Toyota Tundra.

For those who is considering buying this cehicle, or those who have purchased/leased this vehicle and complaining about difficulty getting into the rear seats - GET A CLUE!!! THIS CAR IS THE EPITOME OF A "SPORTS UTILITY VEHICLE". A simple suggestion to you all; Take this car to your nearest dirt road / construction site / ANYWHERE off the road, and GO!!!!!!!!!! After you COME OUT of the nowhere land with the now-there-is-a-path behind you, then you'd UNDERSTAND. (No, I am NOT a hunt-and-kill outdoorsy type either). GET IT???
