  We had the x5 BMW for the past 3 years and this beats everything about the x5. Great driving.

  Better than ever? - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By LR318 - July 2 - 10:00 am

  Just got back from the Debut Night at the local Land Rover Dealership. The build quality seems incredible. The "Door Test" (see how sturdy the car is made based upon the sound made when the door is slammed shut) passed with fly colors. The car is so sturdy, it is so quiet and the materials seem to be top notch. I felt so safe in that car, even when the 300 HP kicked in, 80 mph in that car needs no hesitation. All the important buttons of AC/Heat,Radio, NAV, and other functions were within reach from driver seat, plenty of cup holders (I counted 10).Room of a minivan, capability of more than any other SUV, and I would not hesitate to trade my Discovery in for one of these! Yeah its that good!

  Purchased this LR3 from a private party with all service records. What a tremendous SUV. Have owned a few MDXs and am new to Land Rover but thus far very impressed with the ride quality of this vehicle. Honestly I expect that the cost of operation for this vehicle will be higher but the safety, features like Navigation and panoramic Sunroof with fold flat seats made this vehicle top on our list. Whether its a short trip to the store or a long drive up North were thrilled to take the LR3 on an adventure.

  Great Truck, Kids love the sun roofs, Quiet as you drive down the highway at 80. It goes through mud, rivers, snow and the country club to golf with four full sized men and their bags. Great truck

  By Coloradan - March 18 - 10:23 am

  I love my LR3. My friends love my LR3. I get complimented often on my rig. This is my second Land Rover (Disco II), and I had great experiences with both. Dont buy into the reliability hyperbole. Land Rover makes a superior product.

  Awesome! - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By Jeff - December 18 - 2:50 pm

  What a well-conceived vehicle! Perfect for our 3 kids and car-pooling to sports and school. Rugged in the Minnesota winter, safe to drive with kids, fabulous third row seating, awesome light with the alpine windows in second and third row, and fantastic storage when second and third row seats are flattened. Best SUV with third row seat by far!

  Grey Ghost - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By Charles Woodall - November 17 - 12:43 pm

  It handles well. I like the height and view. This is my third Rover. They only get better. The workhorse is still there but the creature comforts are superb. I would recommend it highly

  No regrets whatsoever!! - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By David - November 12 - 8:50 am

  I bought my LR3 SE recently from a used car dealership who posted the car on eBay. I had CARCHEX.com review the car before the purchase and shipment. I saved about $10K than if I had bought it at my local Land Rover dealership. The car is the envy of my friends, neighbors, and colleagues. I love the navigation, the large spacing, power and handling, and the amazing internal and external styling. The mileage is a definite issue; however I leverage my old car during the weekdays, i.e. for going to work. I drive my LR3 primarily on weekends, i.e., dinner date and going to church. This way I save on gas as well as preserve the value of my vehicle.
