Used 2005 Land Rover LR3 Consumer Reviews
WOW
What a difference from my old Disco. Waited for this one since the Auto Show and it was worth it. GREAT on-road drive but haven't had the heart to take it up to the quarry yet. Went over the test track at the dealership like a bump in the road.
Best Thing We Have Ever Done
This must be the most advanced Land Rover ever. We use to own a Mk1 Discovery so it was a big step up to the Discovery 3/LR3. Everything is just perfect, so well put together, so fast, and no normal person is buying this car to get good economy

On road off road it's a peach
The performance of the LR3 is unsurpassed. Having been a past LandRover owner I thought it was just aDiscovery in new clothes. But it truely is completely new. It is heads above any other SUV on the new line up for 2005.The first bweekend we owned it we headed for the hills;my wife ,myself and 5 dogs.The fold down seats were perfect for them(the dogs not my wife,she insisted on sitting up front).My gas mileage was actually better than the ratings claim not much but still higher.The terrain response makes even the casual driver feel at ease in all types of driving.I think Land Rover has hit the nail directly on the head.It runs circlesaround the competition.DRIVE IT you'll LIKE IT.
Dealer support
I bought a LR3 HSE about two weeks ago. So far, my experience has not been too good. I purchased the car on a Monday night, and the dealer said they needed two days to prep the car. I picked it up on Wednesday, and within minutes of driving off, noticed the Navigation System didn't work. So much for thoroughly prepping the car. This couldn't have been missed. It has now been two weeks, the car has been in the shop twice, and I am still waiting for, hopefully, the right part. We'll see. The dealer seems very interested in selling cars, but their customer care / support is terrible
Excellence
This is a great SUV. The interior of this car is amazing. Its almost as if you were driving the more expensive range rover but for a lot less. If you want a great SUV that will serve your every need, this is it.
