  Loving my decision - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By Charlotte Fan - June 12 - 9:20 pm

  I traded in a 2005 Cadillac Escalade for my 2005 LR3 and could not be more pleased. While the Cadillac may have more "bells and whistles", the LR3 has many more functional benefits. The ride is great and I love the feeling of knowing that road and weather conditions will never impede my ability to travel. A great looking luxury vehicle that has the ability to go "blue collar" when necessary.

  LR# - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By stwsam - April 13 - 2:16 pm

  I have owned 5 new LRs in the past 4 years. This takes the cake. Even more bullet proof than our 2004 Range Rover. Just everything is flawless. 3800 miles and not the first sensor light. LR is catching up at long last. The ride is smooth, the power is great and the sound system with blow you away.

  LR3 is pretty tight - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By Zerry S Vaughan - March 11 - 12:26 pm

  My wife and I are happy with the purchase of our LR3 so far. It has lived up to what we have expected from it. Here in VA. we had a couple of snowy days and I put it through a test of what I need from an SUV and it handled great!!! For everyday driving conditions it is a fun, smooth driving experience. I didnt expect for an SUV to handle as well as the LR3 did, I mean when Im driving down 95 switching lanes I feel comfortable and in control with not even a hint of swaying Im impressed. The Harman Kardon sound system is the bomb, and the sound is so richly toned and crisp like whoa!!! Great job Land Rover.

  By stephanie elendu - February 28 - 2:36 pm

  my car (lr3) is fun to dive, she does whatever you want. Its a pleasurable experience to own an LR3, if you own one, then youll understand what Im talking about; thats why the LR3 is rated "the SUV of the year" for 2005.

  Great Luxury SUV - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By P K Able - February 2 - 9:33 pm

  It has been a great car We take it to Tahoe and Carmel plus around town driving--it is the only true 3rd seat SUV in this price range--When you need that extra cargo room the 3rd row seat is hidden and you get total use of the cargo space--try that with a Lexus, Escalade, Denali Toyota you get back sprain lifting the 3rd row seat out to get the max cargo room

  Love it so far... - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By Janet & Dave - November 12 - 6:16 am

  We have been a long time Jeep family (owned 4) and were looking at the Commander. For the same price we were able to get a 2005 new LR3 - no comparison! The ride is amazing, the level of service from the dealership second to none, and the third row is extremely comfortable. I am 62, 240 and have ridden in the 3rd row - I cant do that in any other SUV in this class. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for a comfortable, luxurious vehicle, whether an SUV or not.

  Amazing - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By leader1111 - September 10 - 3:36 am

  First Land Rover after dreaming for years. Big change from Discovery. Exceptional in every way. Rides like being on a cloud, but goes anywhere. Passengers/customers love going over obstacles. It seals the deal. It is so smooth that I really have to watch speed as at 100-110 mph I still think I am going 70 mph. Dealer excellent. Mileage 14/18 (for 3 1/2 tons) but tired of hearing people complaining that it doesnt get the same mileage as their previous economy car. Duh! Compare its mileage, capabilities, handling and comfort to the Hummer H1 or Mercedes G55 which have the same capabilities, and its half the price.

  Trust me Buy it, I did - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By Phil - August 28 - 5:03 am

  I live in Germany and travel on the autobahn daily at over 125 mph. I would challenge any other production SUV to come close to the performance of this one. This truck is a sports car with room to spare. It is in a class by itself, trust me I have drive every other SUV from the X5, to the M class, the Volvo and the Explorer. This one is the best. Any you have to see the way the seats all fold into the floor independently.

  An Excellent Ride - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By dxholder - January 10 - 4:06 pm

  Land Rover has provided an OUTSTANDING vehicle. Being that I am a previous owner of the Land Rover Discover Series, I can say without a doubt that significant improvements have been made in providing me, consumer, with a smoother and quieter ride, easier handling, and over enhancement of interior, as well as the exterior.

  Roving Rover - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By john caselli - November 15 - 1:33 pm

  The changes from the discovery to the LR3 are not even comparable. Land Rover has done great things w/this new updated model. ive had it for almost 3 years & have zero problems w/it. It rides excellent & will dile you w/guilt if you dont take it off the road now & then. My wife had a Discovery & feel rest assured that you will have piece of mind w/this machine where as w/the discovery you just never knew.
