I love that generation of LR Discovery, possibly one of the greatest 4x4s ever - can go almost anywhere offroad yet it's supreme onroad too. It absolutely looks the part too!
But, buy a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado and you know it'll do 200K-500K miles. If you're lucky enough to live in Australia, you can still buy the 70 Series Toyota Land Cruiser - which will do 500K miles easily.
Most Discos, after 100K, start to get very expensive to run, and will probably be spending more time in the garage than being used for its intended purpose. If you look at most footage, these days, of people overlanding in Australia or Africa, or what the UN or other NGOs use in remote locations - it's generally a Toyota, and for good reason.

People literally think land rovers are the most unreliable things that break down constantly, if you ask me people just need an excuse because they know they just can-t afford a better car. I-m almost to 200k miles on my LR3 haven-t had a breakdown or any major repairs.

Hmm. For the commenters who are highlighting the Land Rover's questionable reliability, I suspect if you ask owners of later model LandCruisers about reliability, when their DPF filter has just failed AGAIN, you might get a different response.

What do they say? 'If you want to go across the desert, take the LandRover, and if you want to make it back, you take the Land cruiser'. And taking these cars in a snowy wood, isn't really a test is it? Good vid though

on road comfort is quite important. in australia you have to drive 2-3 hours on road to reach the camping site or off road track. it is not easy to sit in a shitty car with below average interior and laggy throttle.

Brilliant. So right about the electronics. the sophistication of the terrain management is what sets these cars above. Anybody can bolt on a locker, but nobody programs the control systems as well as Toyota and LR.

As of January 2022 the discovery has only done about 88, 000 miles and has a good mot history.
The Land cruiser 150 must have a private plate on it.
