General Comments
An overated status symbol for the rich. Bought mine 2 years ago, sold it after 12 months, at a loss of 3k. In that year had spent nearly 3k on failed central locking, wiper motor, electric areial, leaking boot, severe rust in boot floor, chasis rot, nackered shox, warped discs, headgasket replacement, seized waterpump, failing transfer box. Only for the rich, you feel great driving it, but if you are middle class, you can't afford to run it. Give landrover a miss, and buy japanese!

Discovery Xs Man's Response to theshooter's Review
Written on: 20/12/2009
I found this review not helpful because...It is obviousley written by someone who wants a new car at a secondhand price, they have totally missed the point of a discovery, it is for people who need to drive on either unmade roads or completely off road, generally people that live in or on the outskirts of rural towns and need to get about in all weathers, japanes vehicles are better on road but can't even come close to a landrover vehicles in a rural situtation.
<br/>Landrovers are owned by all classes of people, it's a vehicle not a tool to have a dig at peoples class status.
<br/>we are better off without your sort in the worlds greatest vehicle.
<br/>they wouldn't still be going if they were crap 1948 - present day...
