Off-roading, we all love it but some like to do it in style. After Japanese manufacturers quickly jumped on board the Lifestyle 4x4 segment, Land Rover realized they needed to step their game up! Land Rover soon developed the Defender and the Range rover. The Range Rover not only had 5 doors, the iconic 3.5L Rover V8, but it was the uber-luxurious 4x4 that we didn’t know we needed. Now stop reading this and watch the vid!

Couple of things about this video : -The Land Rover Discovery won every Camel Trophy they were engaged in because they were the official and therefore main car of the event ; -The 2,7 l TDV6 is not from Jaguar but from a Ford/PSA partnership ; it was fitted in Peugeots, Citroëns, Fords, Jaguars and Land Rovers ; -From 18:55 to 19:08, you're showing footage of the Discovery Sport, which is to the Discovery what the Range Rover Evoque is to the Range Rover, but they awfully look alike...

1995 we had 2 Discovery’s. They were absolutely amazing. My mother eventually traded hers for a smaller car and my father kept his until it was no longer economical to repair it. From a .gov search. My fathers discovery was still being driven by someone in 2016 before it was declared SORN. I barely see them on the road apart from ones which have been heavily modified. It was the ultimate adventure vehicle and we went everywhere with them, even to the top of the White cliffs of Dover for camping. I miss those days.

@joshbacon8241 8 ай бұрын

My dad used to have a Discovery 3 when I was a kid, and I thought it was a very nice car indeed. Ours was a 2005 (55-reg) HSE model with the 2.7-litre TDV6 diesel paired with the 6-speed automatic, and it was finished in a dark metallic blue (called Buckingham Blue) with the 'Alpaca' cream leather interior, which looked really nice. It was September 2010, and I remember eagerly awaiting the moment when my dad would pull up onto our driveway in it, and when I saw PN55TZH pulling onto our driveway for the first time, I immediately went outside to have a look around it, and I remember being very impressed by what I saw. Because ours was an HSE model, it was fully loaded with all the bells and whistles, some of which we’d never had on any car we’d ever owned before, including tri-zone climate control, heated rear seats, rear audio controls, etc, which 10-year-old me thought was very impressive indeed. Plus, its air suspension made it a very comfortable and relaxing car to travel in - as Jeremy Clarkson said in his Discovery 3 review back in Series 5 of Top Gear to describe the ride quality, "it doesn't go over bumps, it just flattens them." Even to this day, I consider it to be one of my favourite cars we've had out of all the cars my family has ever owned so far.

I’ve been driving a Discovery 1 as my daily vehicle, after owning a Series IIa as my first car. Honestly, I love it. Best over all rover ever released in my opinion. Smack dab in the middle of Range Rover comfort and tech (of the time) with Defender simplicity and styling.

Same here. I have a 99 disco 1 and its amazing how many modern features it has for its age. I honestly have fallen in love with the sound of it just idling. Initially i wanted a disco 2 but i fell in love with the sound of this disco one the very first time i drove it. It was my first vehicle and i doubt ill ever sell it.I drive alot of rental vehicles for work and it makes me appreciate just how advanced this vehicle was for its time. Dual climate control, power everything, dual sun roofs, cd player, heated seats, remote controlled lock and unlock interface. I bought it for under 2k. With a tad over 203k miles. To date ive replaced the head gaskets, serpentine belt, water pump, fan clutch, fan blades, oil pan gasket (with the actual gasket not with rtv as the previous owner did which looked like chunks of dirt in my oil pan ofter 10 or 15 years) coil packs, plugs, plug wires, coolant reservoir, pcv hoses, air intake filter, alternator fuseable link, brake master cylinder, brake servo, brake light switch, brake pads front and rear, brake rotors front and rear, front and rear wheel bearings, terrafirma heavy duty steering and track rods, shift solenoid bypassed (for reliability should the brake switch go out again), magnaflow cat back exhaust upgrade, and the rear differential gasket. I did all this myself with a total estimated time of about a 4 to 5 weeks worth of labor working from 8 am until 4 or 5 pm. Saving myself probably 5 to 8k in shop labor minus the roughly 3.5k in parts. I still plan on replacing the power steering gearbox with a new unit, oil pump, replacing the timing chain, radiator, and replacing the fuel pump. Basically after replacing those the vehicle will essentially be new parts wise. As i said i do not intend on ever selling this vehicle so id rather do these repairs at my leisure rather than waiting for something to actually go bad leaving me on the side of the road which could definitely happen should the fuel pump or timing chain go out.

@@krookdfinra I drove a 02 diesel Corolla for 6 years from 95K to 280K (up to 2017). I replaced tyres, brake discs and pads, 1 shock, wiper blades front and back washer fluid, coolant and Oil. I didn't get the timing belt and water pump changed and I think the oil and pollen filter was changed once. I basically drove it like a stolen vehicle pretty much the entire time. I ended up scrapping it out of sheer spite when I realised it would NEVER die (and also as the only way my wife would let me buy a new car, I'd still be driving the damn thing now). Reliability can be a blessing on a nice car or a curse on a crappy one...
