United Kingdom 2007 Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE Auto Tonga GreenDiscovery 3

If you only need a local run around any of the Japanese 4x4 stuff is good. I have had three shoguns,one patrol and a landcruiser. The Japanese stuff is heavier on fuel than my two Disco 3s and not nearly as comfortable.
To be honest I have owned over two hundred cars bikes and vans in my life and only an Audi A 8 Quattro was a spacious and comfortable on a long motorway trip. I would still own one today if it weren’t for my three dogs. The Discovery 3 is a great motorway cruising comfortable place to be. Takes some beating. Bigger rear than the Range Rover too so the dogs love it.
We also own a Volvo XC 70 which is a fabulous car- 180,000 miles and still climbing on a 60 plate- but the view isn’t as good as the Disco 3 and there is much less cabin space.
With all it’s faults- and we have had a few- the Disco 3 is a great car for long distance work in comfort. We even manage 31 /2 on a run at 70/75 on a remapped D3 which I think is good.
A D4 will replace whichever of the D3 or Volvo dies first. Discovery 3 tdv6 HSE 2007
