We had the x5 BMW for the past 3 years and this beats everything about the x5. Great driving.

Just to be honest, I am happy with my Fully Loaded LR3 HSE w/ brush bar. Here are some experiences I had with my LR3 right from the start to less than 3,500 miles that I would like to share with you (Listed below): 1) The driver’s side door mirror wouldn’t tilt up or down. 2) In Reverse, both side door mirrors will tilt but will not tilt back to normal positions as like before. 3) Loud noises from upper tailgate when going over any size bumps, and when making turns. 4) Sometimes, it’ll take over a minute for the radio to come on, or after I turned off the radio then on again. 5) Suspension Fault. I’ve never driven the LR3 off-road, or even off- curve (people’s most off-road exp)

LR3...Yipee!

Bought my LR3 in Oct. of 2004 and have been happy with the ride comfort (because of air suspension). Also happy with the Programmable entry feature on key fob. I am not so happy with the frequent trips to the pump. In KC Missouri gas is $2.98/gal. CRAZY for a car like this that gets 14 mpg. (my average)

Fun to drive, comfortable, quiet for an SUV. I had a Discovery and was prepared to dislike the LR3 but have found it to be an excellent upgrade by Land Rover

The ride is smooth and very relaxing, especially on the mountain terrain. The new terrain system is a masterpiece. It's better than the Range Rover.
