CarMax Bought my Problem Land Rover, The Nightmare is Over. 

Thank you so much Tony and Laura. Yes, he is still a little upset with DAD. He told me I would be in big trouble if I sell my D2 as well. Lol.

LOL I want the Land rover Discovery 3, It is old but I find them less complicated and more reliable. Choosing the right one by checking it before is the right way to go. We do not want our vehicle to see a garage. We will learn to do all maintenance and repairs ourselves @@Wheel2LiveOffRoad

I'm not a fan of the smaller discoveries or the evoque but I know they have to make them. I just don't think they brought their best design for the Disco 5. The styling should be closer to what the new Defender looks like. Instead, we got something that looks indistinguishable from almost every other SUV on the road. Im a Land Rover fan but they could have done better.

@Wheel2LiveOutdoors agreed. I meant to say they aren't as good lol 😆 offroad wise, I do not like the air/independent suspension. They're decent on road and maybe light offroad use but the electrical issues on the newer ones Is what would make me think twice about taking it offroading. Traction control works flawlessly until it doesn't. Plus, design wise, i feel they've lost their soul. The designs are overly rounded and aerodynamically smoothed. No one buying a landrover in general is buying it because of its fuel efficiency. It's a travesty what they did to the new defender.. no v8 option in the first model. Another rounded design, it looks more how the discovery should have looked in the latest generation. JLR has lost its design touch.. if you look at any new jeep. It's instantly recognized as a jeep, any G Wagon, as a Mercedes suv. Now when you look at the JLR range of vehicles atleast if I didn't know any better mistake it for a Ford explorer with a body kit. Or some of the dozen other cookie cutters crossover eggshaped Suvs out there.

Well. It was under warranty. I can go on about as I wish. Yes main dealer should have had it fixed from the jump but didn’t or couldn’t for whatever reason. Many have found it helpful especially when faced with the same issues from negligent dealers.

They are awesome when they are at a 100% that’s for sure. I love the brand but that one was a mistake.

I love it. It’s a disease. I catch myself searching Facebook marketplace looking for a rescue all the time. I mean I know better but the Landys just suck me in. How is your LS swap going? Any issues?

@@Wheel2LiveOffRoad I have it for about 2 years now. Lots of wheeling out west in utah, Colorado, Arizona and Wyoming. It’s done great. Some minor issues it still has a LR soul after all! 😀. But nothing serious.

I hear that same thing from a lot of folks.
