  Best SUV in the world!!! - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By KROVER - November 11 - 11:10 pm

  SUV with character! I cannot describe how rock solid this vehicle feels. Build quality is excellent, feels like it was carved from stone.

  Love it so much I laugh @ myself - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By David - October 27 - 7:13 pm

  I didnt think I cared much about what car I drove. Then I drove this one. The on road ride is as good as any and off road, well, the only problem with driving this machine off road is it does it all itself. After dialing in the appropriate setting, the best thing (and only thing you need to do is give it a little gas and steer. It goes anywhere effortlessly. My wife calls the on road ride "like butter". As I drive around town I catch myself smiling. The acceleration and handling is just fun. Oh, the sound of the Jag motor is music to even this non- autophile country boy.

  Great Truck, Cross Bar are Whistling - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By schwa75 - October 22 - 4:20 pm

  Just picked the truck up on Monday. Put 300 miles on it in two days. Rides great, turns heads. Had the dealer install cross bars for the roof rack. Wind noise is troublesome. Dealer recommended moving the crossbars further back on the roof. Still no improvement in wind noise. Finally pulled them off tonight and the noise is gone. Will keep you all posted.

  Outstanding vehicle - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By WELKA - July 21 - 8:43 pm

  I have owned my LR3 for 9 months now and have had not one problem. My dealership held one of its offroad events and you would not believe what these things can do. The biggest thing was after we finished doing some serious offroading, we road home in awesome comfort. Land Rover could not have done a better job of designing an interior space. Everything seems to be perfectly placed.

  LR3 Fun - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By mick51 - July 16 - 5:40 pm

  Fun to drive, comfortable, quiet for an SUV. I had a Discovery and was prepared to dislike the LR3 but have found it to be an excellent upgrade by Land Rover

  This truck talks the rest walk - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By lisa123482 - May 4 - 3:43 am

  My Land Rover Lr3 now has 100,600 miles and going strong. I just out secound set of tires on it. I have had 2 alignments and finally one tune-up. Three brake jobs and nothing else. I just had a front Rover Winch installed and a Rover Push bar. I will drive this 05 LR3 to at least 200,000 miles. Its the most comfartable truck I have ever owned. I have changed all fluids and ready for the next 100,000 miles. I will still change engine oil every 5,000 miles and then junk the truck at 200,000 miles at which time well owe me nothing. At aprox. eight years old by then well have cost me about 7,000 dollars a year for the vehicle itself. This is a joke because if I keep it 10 years the cost well even be lower!

  On road off road its a peach - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By MINISNMORRIS - April 23 - 11:50 pm

  The performance of the LR3 is unsurpassed. Having been a past LandRover owner I thought it was just aDiscovery in new clothes. But it truely is completely new. It is heads above any other SUV on the new line up for 2005.The first bweekend we owned it we headed for the hills;my wife ,myself and 5 dogs.The fold down seats were perfect for them(the dogs not my wife,she insisted on sitting up front).My gas mileage was actually better than the ratings claim not much but still higher.The terrain response makes even the casual driver feel at ease in all types of driving.I think Land Rover has hit the nail directly on the head.It runs circlesaround the competition.DRIVE IT youll LIKE IT.
