Land Rover Discovery LR3 2004 test drives - 2009 SUV
The third world
At the end of summer, we gathered together representatives of three schools of off -road automotive, three automobile powers - Germany, Great Britain and the USA. All of them?- luxury SUVs equipped with V8 gasoline engines and complex all-wheel drive systems. And the price is similar. We went to a big quarry near Moscow, well known to lovers of off -road pokatushki. ... to look for adventures. ...
The eyes of the owner
At the wheel since 1974. For the first 8 years, she drove a motorcycle, then the car was moved and for 24 years now at the wheel. I had cars (of course, for so many years!) And now it's time to change the next one. The choice of a car is a painful work! You are leafing through magazines, you go through the salons, and there everything is something wrong ... and suddenly! ...
His own head
The Land Rover Discovery 3 first Lend Rover Discovery appeared in 1989, in 1998 it was replaced by a second-generation model. Discovery 3 debuted in the spring of 2004 in New York. In Europe, it is sold with a 2.7 liter turbodiesel (V6, 190 hp) and a 4.4 liter gasoline engine (V8, 295 hp). A less powerful gasoline engine is also intended for the United States ...
To whom is science, to whom - a disco ...
English SUVs (and indeed British cars) have always been a dish for an amateur, including because of their ambiguity. Take at least Land Rover Discovery. For lovers to renew dirt, this is a discovery find, opening. For those who prefer not to climb into cobblestones, but to the curb in front of a night club, this is already ...
Brutals
Those who are over fifty (thousand U.E.) Black carcasses are increasingly filling our streets. Until recently, SUVs were perceived disproportionately to inflated animals compared to the usual cars of the passenger caliber. And now, when they walk along the roads with slender columns, somehow you no longer perceive cars smaller than average jeeps. Whoever has something ...

Pluralism OFF-ROD
As a rule, in a comparative test they try to reduce cars that are closest in class, technical characteristics and price. It is not always possible to observe complete identity. Sometimes you have to compare the automatic/mechanics or compare the full version with the base. This time we took a completely new Land Rover Discovery of the 3rd generation and good for you ...
Rolling-City
Abroad, these machines are somehow appreciated too one-sidedly. Ah, what a cross! Ah, how to storm the fords and pull trailers! We love SUVs in a completely different way. Here you have unity and the struggle of opposites - holding representativeness, on the one hand, and village daring - on the other. Nothing prevents them from first with the lobby ...
Black and black
If you do not live in Russia and not on Belgrav Square in London, then the SUV is likely to buy just to drive off -road. So think manufacturers and sellers of these machines. Therefore, they consider the main type of engine to the tragic and economical diesel. As it turned out, this typical feature of the European SUV ...
On Discovery ditches
Like the television channel of the same name, which allows any burdock on the couch to climb into the most inaccessible corners of the world and feel like the king of wild and unbridled nature, the new Land Rover Discovery allows even a teapot to think herself with a material jeeper. Such a car simply depreciates the very concept of off -road. Discovery3 is another example of how automakers ...
