The Land Rover Discovery has a number of important strengths. It's desirable, practical, great off road and available more cheaply than some 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 recommend the D300 diesel engine with entry-level S trim.
Even entry-level S trim gets you leather seats, two-zone climate control, keyless entry and 20in wheels. It also keeps the price below that of stronger competition, so is our pick of the range.
At What Car?, we believe that no one should overpay for their new car, which is why we created our free New Car Buying service. This links you with trusted local dealers who base their offers on prices haggled by our mystery shoppers.
