Land Rover Discovery 300 Tdi 5d (1995/M) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Again, ok.
Costs
I have full service history including every part bought for the car please note the following. Main dealers prices silly on servicings and they seem to add on lots of extra parts when it comes to the servicing. I take mine to an independant L/R garage.

Driving
Ok. Do get the desire to get into a non-4x4 car though!
Performance
Poor for modern day roads. Ok at steady 70 on motorways. However, I feel very underpowered, especially on acceleration.

Living with it
Reliability
Odd electrical problem, constant squeek from top pulley. The dreaded white rust.
Image
Excellent image maker.
Comfort
Seats ok. Noisy on long journeys.

Problems and Ownership
Problems
Engine
Underpowered, dreadful on take-off, out of date with modern road problems.
Other
I love the style and the load capacity, however feel that it would be better suited in terms of performance taking it back 10 - 15 years. With the amount of trafic on the road and unfortunately having to make a quick take-off from junctions, is to slow.
Ownership

Used
Would you buy the same model again?
No
Did you buy from the same manufacturer again?
Yes
