Land Rover Discovery 3.0 D350 Metropolitan Edition 5dr Auto Review
Category: 7-seater
Section: Version review

The Land Rover Discovery has a number of key strengths: it's desirable, practical, great off road and cheaper to buy than many direct rivals. Reliability is a real weak point though, and the Discovery isn't as sophisticated on the road or as plush inside as an Audi Q7 or BMW X7. We reckon entry-level S trim represents the best value, but Dynamic SE is worth considering too.
The trim
See full equipmentRange-topping Metropolitan trim offers a similar amount of creature comforts to R-Dynamic HSE, but with bespoke styling. We think cheaper trims offer better value.
The engine
See full engine specsThe 345bhp 3.0-litre, six-cylinder diesel – the only engine available – is powerful to get this huge SUV from 0-60mph in 5.9 seconds.
