2002 Land Rover Discovery Serangeti review from UK and Ireland
"So good at so much!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
As my first 4x4 this has exceeded my expectations. You quickly adapt to the driving style, a little more leisurely, but don't seem to get anywhere any more slowly.
I do a lot of motorway miles and find it less stressful than my Mercedes C Class due to the visibility and feeling of security.
I've taken it off road a few times and you would be amazed at the capability even with road tyres.
Towing a big caravan is easy though I'm considering a performance upgrade with a chip or smart box.
Watch out for the hight restrictions on multi-story car parks, it won't always fit!
