  Excellent Vehicle - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By TN-LR3 - February 11 - 5:13 pm

  The LR3 is a comfortable and powerful SUV. It does so many things well. It is filled with high tech edges and can go anywhere, any time in style and grace. It is not cheap, but if you compare it to its competitors, it is a far better option.

  Land Rovers best - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By maciosaig - December 25 - 9:13 am

  The LR3 has been nothing short of excellent. Its on-road performance is excellent for what it is. Off -road it surprised me, I do a fair amount of medium to difficult off-roading and the LR3 has not let me down yet. I use the LR3 to commute every day, so I wish it had a diesel engine option like the rest of the world has available. I hate the complicated voice activated navigation, it has difficulty understanding alot of commands, especially when asking it to find Italian restaurants. The off-road part of the nav system is excellent and very technoligically advanced. Passenger comfort is great and cargo hauling is excellent. More aggressive tires and manually locking diffs are needed

  Best of the Best - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By Chuck McKibbin - December 15 - 2:50 pm

  I have owned many SUVs and many, many vehicles. This is the best I have ever owned. It will climb impossible peaks in Arizona, then hit the highway at a smooth 90 m.p.h. Everything has been well thought out and user friendly and this truck has PERFORMANCE.

  LR 3 - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By OldBear - December 10 - 8:26 pm

  We traded our 03 Disco in, we drove the new porsche SUV and we choose the LR3 over it and the VW SUV. It has to be one of the best cars we have ever owned.

  The most astounding SUV built - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By Kelly - November 15 - 3:46 pm

  This is a most wonderful vehicle. Not only is it a automatic, its got 6 speeds you can change while driving on the highway. This is by far the best landrover for your money and excellent for the family. One model includes baby seat holders already in the car so you can just flip the seat up, and sit in the baby carrier. Wonderful!! I am so pleased with my LR3!!

  A true class leader - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By David - November 14 - 8:16 am

  A long time GM Yukon Denali owner (two models) and prior to that, a Tahoe owner, I conducted full research and determined that, dollar for dollar, the LR3 is the BEST buy for a luxury SUV on the market today! It has not disappointed.

  Staying with Land Rover - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By Jayk - September 25 - 12:56 am

  I have newly purchased a LR3 HSE and just love it. Big improvements over the Discovery Series II I owned for 6 years and put 183,000 miles on. I loved that car. It was time for a change. The LR3 is landrovers way of saying we listened. The ride, the interior, the 3rd row seating show vast improvements from the series II. The turning radius is awesome and I trust the cars safety record to protect my family. Looking forward to surpassing the 200,000 mark in this one.

  Just Perfect - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By Jeff - September 9 - 5:13 am

  After three Mercedes MLs, it was time for a change. The MLs kept getting better (1998, 1999, 2001 models) but were nowhere near as good as the LR3. The LR3 is incredibly solid, with smooth acceleration and a great ride. Interior comfort is excellent and the kids love the third row, which offers easy access. Winter driving in New England was never better, with the LR3 handling snow and ice in a way that can only be described as awesome. Yeah, I like the LR3 a lot.

  Get in the Mud - 2005 Land Rover LR3
  By RoverFun - September 5 - 12:40 pm

  My family and I have put 25k miles on the truck this year and have more a problem not driving it. Third row seat is a pleasure, best tailgate design ever, and confort beyond exspectation. I understand that others have had trouble with a first model year, but that is typical and I was prepared for it (bought 100k bumper to bumper warrenty). I have been off road with groups and solo and never been stuck yet. The truck is truely more at home off road and my wife can still lean back an chat on the cell at the same time. I even squeezed a larger set of tires on it and they worked great in sand
