It's our Diamond Anniversary and we're feeling generous.
About the new landrover discovery 3 , With a brand as distinctive and globally recognised as Land Rover, you don't mess with the formula. That's why the all-new Discovery is instantly recognisable as a 'Disco' from every conceivable angle. A neat trick, considering that there is absolutely nothing carried over from the old car. And while the new Discovery evokes the old, it is far from retro-styled. In fact, the Discovery is a clean, pure piece of design that should age just as well as its forebear, if not better.
The Disco's wheelbase has been stretched by a big 335mm, so there's loads more space inside. But with its shorter rear overhang, the overall length of the new car is up by just 130mm. And for the first time, the Discovery is a true seven-seater, with the third row capacious enough for adults to travel in reasonable comfort.
And those long familiar with the Discovery will be pleased to know that reliability has been at the very top of Land Rover's priority list for the new car. Historically, the Discovery has done very badly in customer satisfaction polls such as the JD Power survey. This Discovery hopes to turn that around.
There are two engines from the November 2004 launch, a remarkably refined 190bhp V6 turbodiesel, and a punchy Jaguar-derived 295bhp V8. Prices for the new Discovery start at £26,995 for the TDV6 five-seater and rise to £46,995 for the top-range V8 HSE 7-seater.
