One Big Problem

Big Problem : This is our family's third Land Rover. A Discovery in 1994, another Discovery in 1998. We loved them both and loved our Service Manager. We needed more power to pull a trailer, so in December we took delivery of a fabulous LR3, V8, HSE. Fabulous except for one thing that makes driving, especially long distance driving, really miserable: the driver (and front passenger) headrest is slanted forward at a really uncomfortable angle. No matter where the seat itself is positioned, the headrest is tilted so that the driver's neck is bent forward; it is impossible to sit up straight and have your back, neck, and head rest comfortably. Check this out before you buy or lease !!!

Great drive; feel safe in LA or on the backroads. Average of 10-12 mpg lacks seriously though. Also should have 2 other sunroofs moveable with back windows opening an option. Love the optional back rubber mats, but tailgate should also be covered for dogs....

As the previous owner of a Discovery II, I can say this is a much smoother, solid-feeling vehicle. I enjoy the driving experience more every day. Four months into ownership have given no disappointments.

My husband bought me this car soon after we had our baby in December. I couldn't love it more. It's got amazing handling and pick up. The steering is incredible. It's full of cool offroad features that you can even use on road. I use my "snow" setting in stop and go traffic.
