Land Rover Discovery 1998

Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good value. We drove an ML, Volvo XC90, Rangerover and Disco was the best value for money

    Costs

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Being a V8...very thirsty, but you just use it less then

  • On the road

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Goes great in a straight line and offroad, but does not handle well. Not a sports car after all though.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Powerful, lusty, torquey V8 and sounds great too!

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Not a problem. New discos (post May 2002 are like German cars) faultless

    Image

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Better image than RangeRover and X5. Especially in ES, black and tinted windows with 18inch alloys.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Very comfortable. ES model is better than ML and Volvo interior seats.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Can't comment, but locks work fine and single drivers lock and double 'rest of door' unlock mechanism is good.

    Service

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Buying top of the range gets you all the benefits, better courtesy car, tea, coffee, free extras
