I recently had a very unpleasant episode with my Disco 5. The steering rack failed whilst cornering causing me to have an RTA. I claimed on my insurance for body and mechanical repair. 14 weeks in to repair and I am still awaiting return. Very long parts wait from LR (steering rack, suspension arms and subframe). Can anyone advise if I have a legitimate claim against LR as I have excess to pay on my insurance claim and the car is now devalued as it has been in an accident. I understand that this fault has been recognised with other LR models that have been recalled but not the Discovery 5.

That's Australian dollar...... not USA $$$$$

C'est une très belle voiture.
Puis-je avoir les coordonnées de la concession à l'île maurice ?
Merci d'avance.

I'm a huge fan of the oyster two tone interior. It's closer to light gray then white.

inherited a 63 series 2A no issues that I witnessed during childhood and still none today

reliability and service levels are shite, utter shite. I own one and I can't wait to get rid of it.

A very nice review. Well done with smooth presentation skills.

I fell in love with these vehicles 3 years ago and I wont have anything else now, value for money is off the charts. I just had an HSE for 3 years and just upgraded to the new SE with more features for less than I paid for the HSE.

Would love to see a comparison between a more utilitarian spec Discovery 5, the new Defender 110 and the old Discovery 4. I have a Disco 4 and love it - and still can’t work out if either of the newer vehicles are the right car for me to upgrade to one day. I use mine for EVERYTHING including family duties, hauling luggage, big trips with friends and off-road/camping trips with the family and dogs. We’ve even slept in it and use all 7 seats quite regularly. The only fault I find with it is the turbo-lag from the turbo-diesel engine, plus obviously the technology is a bit dated now. Looking forward to hopefully seeing a comparison video one day!

I remember my ‘94 LR1 what money put she was. I get so tempted by the new LR5 but once bitten twice shy.

I had a discovery 4 . It was very reliable and did 60k miles in it. Needed to replace it and took one look at the Disco 5 and thought it looked like a jelly mould. I did test drive one but the boot space was significantly smaller than the Disco 4 where it mattered. My wifes disabled buggy is not footballs. I bought an Audi Q7 which I have also been very pleased with and much bigger boot than the Disco 5. I looked forward to the Defender arriving , great looking car , more like a disco 4 replacement but oh dear . The boot is even smaller . The Range rover sport and even Range Rover have boots too small for my needs so wont be buying an LR car. It will be a Q7 , or BMW X7 or Volvo XC90

We have a 2022 model R Dynamic D250 we have had no end of problems with it its been in the garage more times than we have used it the main problem has been the E.B,A and lane assist JLR said we can have a new car and still waiting for it with no build date, JLR have been so unhelpful, My dealer has been so helpful and done everthing they can but there hand are tide due to JLR if any car magazine would be interested in taking this up please feel free to get in touch

I’ve got one , a 2017 , less than 30 k on it , yesterday the glass fell out of the passenger front door, the driver side fell out in December last year. Front windscreen leaked , tailgate and rear light clusters were full of water, steering wheel airbag failed, it’s the worst car I’ve ever had.

It's really beautiful, but can you also compare this to a Toyota Prado? I'm looking at that price tag and option, I'm seeing some similarities!

MY DISCOVERY 4 2015 160000KS A Lot of towing a little bit of off roading no issue's great car

Defender sold me a dream, an adventure dream
Discovery sold me a nightmare, an everyday school run

A highly unrealiable car still?

Yeah will let you know down below in the comments thanks for reminding us
