1999 Land Rover Discovery LS review from UK and Ireland
"A very good car great to drive with a very smooth auto box"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Cigarette lighter failed.
General comments?
The car handles very well for a four wheel drive. Not encountered any alarming driving moments even in appalling weather conditions.
Find it comfortable, quick, easy to drive and so far completely reliable.
Only problem is the steering wheel does obscure the instruments.
Is heavy on fuel, but only to be expected with an engine and car of this size.
