| Auto Express Driver Power Survey |
|
Just taking a look at the Auto Express Driver Power survey results and there are some interesting Land Rover results.
The Discovery 3 comes first for ride quality with the Discovery 4 taking second spot. They also both do well for seat comfort coming third and seventh respectively. Ease of driving was another good result with second and fifth places. Practicality was also good too.
Overall the Discovery 4 is in 33rd place, the Evoque 36th, Discovery 3 68th, Range Rover 88th and the Freelander 110th.

Was it by any chance a poor reliability rating which brought down the overall score, or dealership backup!  Currently 2009 Disco 3 SE, 2013 MY D4 HSE and 2016 D4 SE
Previously:

110 V8 CSW (220k)
S3 109 hi cap pickup (ex RN)

Well take your pick really, although there was also the dreaded running costs putting a massive spanner in the works.

Odd, as last year the D3 was 121st and the D4 8th overall. Fickle lot the British motorist aren't they?

It was also good to see the D3 doing so well too, especially as it is now that bit older.
