I've got a 1992 land rover discovery 5 doors with the TDI 200 motor and the same blue interior its a great car it's still my daily driver its great to see people still honouring its legacy
The Discovery was great from the MK1 up until the MK4. Beautiful, Purposeful and Off-road worthy. The MK5 is just another SUV that looks boring and will be used by Women to drive their children to a football game.
agreed - every bit as capable as the defender that sell for major bucks these days - new they were priced close - I would have gone for a defender but they didn't have a 96 MY and the dealer didn't have any 97's yet (they also didn't have cruise control) but would have been a much better reseller
I remember when my dad used to have a 2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE when I was 10 years old, and because it was the HSE specification it was pretty much loaded to the gills with all the bells and whistles, including but not limited to, tri-zone climate control, heated seats in the front and back which were upholstered in a really nice cream leather, a DVD player (which was actually a third-party Rosen unit) colour sat-nav, rear audio controls, you name it! Plus, its air suspension meant it was a VERY comfortable car to travel in…
thanks for the video - I really like my 96 Disco with 4.0 - it is the SD with no leaking sunroof manual seats a/c and auto - aside from the poor fuel mileage I love the drive and use it as my DD
You've just made my planned Discovery review so much harder by doing this so well... If I was buying one, OK when I buy one, if not an original 3 door Id have to go for a late Series II, the best of the pure design with a bit more bling and a better engine. The current one...meh, maybe if the rear number plate was square the drop would still work and as I hate autos and would never buy one Im a bit alienated
The LR 4 has the Utilitarian look and is distinguished from all the beta looking Crossover SUV's. Hence, why I bought the LR 4.The Defender Looks tough and military too.
Land Rover Discovery 5 sales have tanked. They have totally messed up the styling, they have also messed up the new Defender and have left a gaping hole in the market which is going to be filled by the new Ineos Grenadier. Let’s face it the MOD are not going to buy the defender or the farming community.
Such a shame it's now just a posh Nissan Juke for similar naff-naffs that cant afford a real RR. There is no middle ground market these days for those that just want a product that performs it's purpose well.
Book the car in to get fixed for the 1st fault that will show up within a week. Poor reliability, bad service record and customer support in Australia is terrible.
if it is a real land rover it is only tdi 1👍💪 …..TD5 👎 discavery 3👎 doscavery 4 👎 the only one and will one for many times is alone discavery TDI 1 respect👍💪💪💪
