Land Rover Discovery -- acceptable car for a guy?


First thing that comes to mind now when I see a Range Rover...

Make sure to go with AAA Premier. It will quickly pay for itself in towing fees alone.

I don't know the answer to your question and don't really care as I drive what I want without considering what other people may think. However , I will say that the Land Rover Disccovery is about the biggest piece of shite vehicle I have ever driven. A quick test drive (on the street , not on Land Rovers course at their dealership as that's how they get ya) will eliminate this option from your mind.

Gay or not, don't get a Land Rover. It's a garbage vehicle that will leave you stranded no matter which team you're batting for. The Land Rover does not discriminate.

Get the old body style with the hella lamps and the tiger blazened spare tire cover. Then you will be FAF.

This. These new models look like SUVs for old bitchy white ladies. Land Rovers need their balls back. Loved the older models even though they were mechanical pieces of shite.

That is almost my exact old pos discovery. I had the full grill guard though and it was a silver hse with the hse wheels.

I loved that vehicle and hated that vehicle more than anything.

I don't consider the newer versions to be a Discovery, anything after 2004 is something else for me. I've owned a 97' and 03'. Wouldn't recommend getting one for a daily driver.

The LR4 has some of the Disco look, but none of the old charm. Land Rovers may have gotten much more reliable over the past ten years, but they've lost so much of the spirit that made them fun.

Stupid list is stupid. I can't believe anything that says the highest customer satisfaction is Porches, Tesla, and...........Chrysler!

Always liked Land Rover, but lately their style isn't my taste. Plus I've had relatives and coworkers who had the horror experiences with reliability. And maybe it's just highlighted by the fact that a small repair is going to cost you $$$$. But in any case, I've gotten the same feedback.

I will admit they are making SUV's (mid sized) more feminine. And that's coming from a guy who drives a car everyday. We just bought my wife one and there really wasn't any option I felt was something I wanted to drive. Not that I wouldn't drive it, but I didn't love it. If you squint, they all look like minivans at certain angles.

I really don't know about a chick vehicle as it is a nice comfortable vehicle.
Wouldn't really take it off road as there are less expensive vehicles to go off roading in.
