I've got a 1992 land rover discovery 5 doors with the TDI 200 motor and the same blue interior its a great car it's still my daily driver its great to see people still honouring its legacy
agreed - every bit as capable as the defender that sell for major bucks these days - new they were priced close - I would have gone for a defender but they didn't have a 96 MY and the dealer didn't have any 97's yet (they also didn't have cruise control) but would have been a much better reseller
The Discovery was great from the MK1 up until the MK4. Beautiful, Purposeful and Off-road worthy. The MK5 is just another SUV that looks boring and will be used by Women to drive their children to a football game.
I remember when my dad used to have a 2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE when I was 10 years old, and because it was the HSE specification it was pretty much loaded to the gills with all the bells and whistles, including but not limited to, tri-zone climate control, heated seats in the front and back which were upholstered in a really nice cream leather, a DVD player (which was actually a third-party Rosen unit) colour sat-nav, rear audio controls, you name it! Plus, its air suspension meant it was a VERY comfortable car to travel in…
The LR 4 has the Utilitarian look and is distinguished from all the beta looking Crossover SUV's. Hence, why I bought the LR 4.The Defender Looks tough and military too.
You've just made my planned Discovery review so much harder by doing this so well... If I was buying one, OK when I buy one, if not an original 3 door Id have to go for a late Series II, the best of the pure design with a bit more bling and a better engine. The current one...meh, maybe if the rear number plate was square the drop would still work and as I hate autos and would never buy one Im a bit alienated
thanks for the video - I really like my 96 Disco with 4.0 - it is the SD with no leaking sunroof manual seats a/c and auto - aside from the poor fuel mileage I love the drive and use it as my DD
Land Rover Discovery 5 sales have tanked. They have totally messed up the styling, they have also messed up the new Defender and have left a gaping hole in the market which is going to be filled by the new Ineos Grenadier. Let’s face it the MOD are not going to buy the defender or the farming community.
Such a shame it's now just a posh Nissan Juke for similar naff-naffs that cant afford a real RR. There is no middle ground market these days for those that just want a product that performs it's purpose well.
Book the car in to get fixed for the 1st fault that will show up within a week. Poor reliability, bad service record and customer support in Australia is terrible.
if it is a real land rover it is only tdi 1👍💪 …..TD5 👎 discavery 3👎 doscavery 4 👎 the only one and will one for many times is alone discavery TDI 1 respect👍💪💪💪

D1 and D3 family here. Only vehicles for us. Thank you Land Rover.
Great memories as a child from my parent's Series II TD5 and 05 Disco 3. Happy days - a Land Rover fan ever since.
The rear lights were actually taken from the Maestro van. Not the Montego
Beat me to it.... and which dictated the shape of the rear pillars, I think?
He is useless.
LR Discovery 1 series the best!!! 👍👍👍👍🤝🙋♂️

I agreed
I have ,97 disco
4 cld ,diésel turbo
4x4
Is the best
Only trouble is they are the best at rotting too
@@pistonhedd it's called a "flintstone conversion" and helps with fuel economy 😂
I wish LR would have kept the distinctive styling of the Discovery. Disco 5 could be mistaken for a Kia or Honda....total generic styling
The Discovery was great from the MK1 up until the MK4.

The best 4 by 4 by far
Was Quentin Wilson doing the voiceover?

Posh but 300tdi is better and cheaper
I had one years ago and seem to recollect you had to remove the spare wheel to change the rear windscreen wiper 😳
Just turn off the ignition mid-wipe and you have access. Might take a few tries though.
@@blacksquirrel4008 No, because you have to pull the arm back quite a bit.
From first to current gen LR Discovery has its ups & downs but overall It's a great SUV Great video
The LR 4 has the Utilitarian look and is distinguished from all the beta looking Crossover SUV's. Hence, why I bought the LR 4.The Defender Looks tough and military too.
One of Cefalo's cars of the 90's
I would still buy the old with new engine and latest tech
I have a `99 one 3.9 will never let it go.

Well all new SUVs are Autos mostly and I actually now like the look of the new Discovery its warming up to me
Get a300tdi
My Disco is always broken. But I love Larry Rover forever. I will sink $1 million in it before I give it up.
thanks for the video - I really like my 96 Disco with 4.0 - it is the SD with no leaking sunroof manual seats a/c and auto - aside from the poor fuel mileage I love the drive and use it as my DD
I use a 96 300tdi . Brilliant.30 mpg on diesel
This guy reminds me of Angelo from the 90’s children show Mike and Angelo.
Great Video Celebrating The Land Rover Discovery SUV

have to say they remind me of the Matra Simca.
High quality. Beat that Lexus!
you're joking, right?
@@damieg82 Yes. This video is one of the funniest ads ever.
Discovery 2, the best car ever
Keeping my 3 door V8. Because it's a 4x4 truck. Not a posh car as they are now.
Every heard of a landcruiser 😂
The discovery 3 4.4 is a bmw engine not a jaguar
The title should have been, "Land Rover - 30 Years of Breakdowns Celebrated".
😂😂😂
The king of SUVs? More like King of spending the most time at the repair shop then in your driveway. Glued in cylinder liners? Shall I go on??
Shame no footage from the birthday celebration we had 7 launch cars present too ! great video tho welldone !
Yes I like the land rover discovery 3 is my favorite to
Got a 3 door 200tdi best lump they did
This king has taste the hars condition of Kalimantan in Camel Thropy.
Had a 1997 discovery as my first car... I miss my rover.
(lowkey shameless plug for my tiny yt channel with a few old rover vids on it)

sounds like a young gay Quentin Wilson

This chap is camp as a row of tents
he's imitating hammond, same speaking tempo
Brad Available as an optional extra
thats not a car, its a truck
alexander1485 it’s really not a “truck”
@@davidbest1 its not a car either
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✨
"The name's Batchelor. Confirmed Batchelor."
Supper 🌈🌈🌈🌍
The latest version of the Disco is very ugly. All the previous models were good looking
speaking of japanese suvs, this one was rebadged as a honda, a japanese company! a heinous move!😠
Theres only one king and thats Toyota landcruiser 😂
if it is a real land rover it is only tdi 1👍💪 …..TD5 👎 discavery 3👎 doscavery 4 👎 the only one and will one for many times is alone discavery TDI 1 respect👍💪💪💪
Can’t watch this posh boy
I’m sure the discovery5 is a good suv but it just looks like it was made for women.
Discovery 5 look like gay chikken bottom rear end
