Buy a Discovery S and it’ll come with 19-inch alloy wheels, a six-speaker hi-fi, 10-inch touchscreen with DAB, air-conditioning, air suspension, a powered tailgate and a heated windscreen.Įvery Discovery comes with seven seats, unlike Land Rover’s smaller Discovery Sport, which is also available in five-seat form. The four-cylinder engines are very capable, but the V6 units are noticeably smoother and more muscular. This time numbers weren’t limited and buyers could select SD4 or SD6 engines. Three months later the Landmark edition was launched, also to celebrate 30 years of the Discovery.
Created to mark three decades of the Discovery, it was based on the SD6 SE and came with three exclusive colour options. The Anniversary Edition that went on sale in January was limited to 400 units for the UK market only.
USED LANDROVER DISCOVERY MANUAL
Whichever engine was chosen it had an eight-speed automatic transmission no manual ’box was offered. For those who preferred petrol there was the 335bhp 3.0-litre V6 Si6. Diesel engine choices were the 237bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder Ingenium unit, and the 254bhp TD6 3.0-litre V6. The fifth-generation Discovery arrived in spring 2017. It brought comfort with refinement, and before long seven-seat capability, too – all while still being able to tackle the toughest terrain – which is just the way the Discovery has remained ever since. But then the Discovery arrived and everything changed at a stroke. Obviously the Range Rover didn’t fit into that category, but until the arrival of the original Discovery in 1989, you had to be pretty committed to use a Land Rover on an everyday basis. For decades the firm focused on off-road ability above all else, and it’s no exaggeration to say that up to a point its cars were one-trick ponies, in that they could tackle any terrain, but they were noisy, thirsty, slow and uncomfortable. Ever since Land Rover launched its first car in 1948, this British brand has been at the forefront of off-roaders.
