At first I didn’t quite like the back but now, it seems I appreciate it by having a unique look that not all cars have.

The horsey set will buy this in spades - it's a hugely capable vehicle. There are loads of Discovery 4s where I live and seeing them they look so dated now in comparison. Well done JLR.

Exactly people seem to forget these vehicles are very capable off-road I would rather drive this than a Audio Q7 or BMW X5 across tough terrain it's still the best off-roader.

I worry about how much stuff is electric. Even the nechansism to get in rearmost seats. If you use them a lot that'll break. And its really slow. Not really necessary either given the first part needs to be slid by hand. Why not a simple lever. There's a lot of motors to break. Hope it has a massive battery to power them all.

The thing is with this car... it doesn't have many rivals, particularly if you ignore Mat's advice and go for the entry model. Are there any real off readers, with 7 seat spec and room at that price. If you don't need the off road spec, then there are dozens of good alternatives. Who needs leather? Trust me you do not need reversing cameras. I have a Peugeot van with nothing. I have never bashed it.

MrSpencely It could also be a result of rough use by auto journalists. As one fully loaded car is used by multiple reviewers, it could've gotten​ loose by some over enthusiastic journalist fiddling with it before Carwow got a hold of it. Otherwise Matt would've mentioned it as iffy plastic bits and flimsy plastic joints have been pointed out by Matt in several videos.

My wife is driving a Discovery 2017 around while our D3 HSE is having the front diff replaced (yeah, gulp). She hates it. Our dog is getting on a bit and as the rear seats do not fold down and then up, she cannot climb up :( We miss the rear split tail gate when horse riding, the front piller is way too raked back and you have to nearly break your neck to get in. It's just no way near as practical as the D3. She keep on at me as to when we get ours back. Oh and that startup time just to get the radio on is a pain in the ass. Oh and the Bluetooth audio loses its connection every 30 seconds and reverts back to the radio. Ho Hum.

Land Rover - a tow truck driver's dream come true: Walter M, Takes one of these to Death Valley NP, turns down the dirt road to Race Track, uses the hydraulics to raise ground clearance and speeds on his way! Until he happens on a shallow gully cut across the road during last winter's storm. When the low profile tires quickly compress, the diminished suspension travel (from using the hydraulics to raise ground clearance) fully compress and in a mater of milliseconds, two tires and two rimes are destroyed, However, this is only the beginning of Walter's problems as the nearest town that has replacement parts is hundreds of miles away!

However, It's been years since I've seen any new Land Rover products on a true 4x4 trail - However, that doesn't stop the company from marketing a heritage ,that has long past, to convince a new generation of Walter's to do stupid things.

Congrats Mat, I've enjoyed Matt Prior and Sean Carson's reviews of the new Disco, but after watching your review I now feel as though we've actually spent some real practical time with this thing, so big thanks! I can't believe just how much ill-informed drivel has been published since last year about the 2017 Disco by obviously under-prepared or confused so-called motor writers, but you've got it down big time, thank feck. It'll be available in July here in Australia, and might just replace the old Kombi in our family, unless the 700nm RR Sport temps me away.. And yes, we'll be needing those off-road chops around our home here in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney. Thanks again, great work. Bring it on.

Some facts that no-one in these car reviews EVER mention. Compared to the previous model. 1) The load space is a lot SMALLER. With all seats folded it is 2400litres vs 2550 for the old model. This is because the floor to ceiling measures 10cm less; You could get a bike upright in the old one if you took off the front wheel; You CANT in this 2) The old one has five full size comfortable seats in rows 2 and 3 with good access to row 3. In order to be able to fold the seats flat with electric motors they have ruined the comfort. The seats are very thinly padded and set way too low so that for a 1m80 adult your knees are up by your ears and to give the illusion of leg room the seat squabs are 5cm shorter in the new model. They are NOT ADULT SEATS and terribly uncomfortable. They are suitable only for children 3) Access to row 3 is terrible compared to the old model 4) the middle seat on row 2 is not a proper seat unlike in the old model; It is as hard as a plank of wood and only suitable for short journeys. Comfort has been sacrificed to make it into a fold down armrest. I regularly travel long distances with 5 or more adults in perfect comfort in my Disco 4. You couldn't in this car. It is designed and priced for wealthy people who live in urban environments who want to take the kids to school. Needless to say i won't be buying one. The back end is also plug ugly btw REPLY

Owning a JLR vehicle these days is a great experience these days. The after sales is great, the service, the dealers, and heck even the reliability, touch wood, having owned one, is great. Now I don't completely do that car justice, but heavy green laning, highway drives and city drives alike have been a breeze! As far as this particular series is concerned, I'm neither a fan of the way this looks, nor the Velar to be honest, though the velar has phenomenal interiors, I prefer the classic, bigger and boxier nature of the classic range rover personally, but what a brilliant family car this New Discovery would make! Heck, even the discovery sport, is a great buy I feel. Great review as always, thx for all your great content !

You can always thank the British pound sterling for that,because of its retarded high vallue everything produced and exported out of britain will be triple as expensive compared to the rest of europe,dont even bother with biritsh cars since servicing and spare parts will obiusly be more expensive than its rivals.So to summorise the purchase and upkeep of british products will contantly be a drain on resources,you are better off buying german,french or japanese luxury suv's with even more kit and options for the same price of a british one.

A heavy V8 with lots of torque, in a SUV that can't do anything substantial off road. And are those V8 diesel emissions correct?

carbiify bro don't talk like you don't know, these SUV are almost never driven off road, and you cant argue that the SQ7 is better in every way you can think of other than off road, better drivetrains, more comfy, more refined, more luxurios. Basically the Q7 is a much better product for the money, not to mention the SQ7 which can pull an airbus a380

Almost? That's not the point. If I spend huge amounts on an SUV, I would like know it can go off road. Better drivetrains? Audi longitude mount their engines forward of the front axle, making their cars nose heavy and prone to understeer. VW/AUDI DSG gearboxes are well known for failing. More comfy? Can you prove this? Platforms? JLR's aluminum platforms, are very advanced. The only area where Audi are better, is build quality and ergonomics. BTW, I'm not your bro.

carbiify come on, the Q7 has enough off road abilities for EVERYONE, for drivetrains in a SUV who cares where the engine is mounted? Audi diesel engines are known to be the smoothest and the quietest in the business and they are very economical, for gearboxes the SQ7/Q7 has a ZF 8 speed gearbox which is one of the transmissions out there, for quality AUDI are the leaders in the industry and you can not argue with that, for comfort the Q7 with air suspension according to matt is ULTRA comfortable, and its the most insulated for the outside in its class, the only 2 things the disco is better is that it has better 3rd row and better off road abilities but the for the 3rd row the Q7 has enough space.... Just don't argue that the disco is a better SUV compared to the Q7 ESPECIALLY the SQ7, germans are way ahead of british cars.

Far too much cheap plastic. You can hear it as he opens/closes all the storage areas and scratches the plastic beside the rear window. AND this is a 60k+ car!!! What must the cheaper models be like? This thing couldn't touch the Germans for quality, reliability and performance. By hey...... British car, British journalist so of course he thinks it's good. Funny how he didn't mention the styling!!! Asymmetric rear is awful looking and the proportions are all wrong, too narrow, too tall and too long. Doesn't compare with how the old one looked. IMAO!!

Bit late to the party, but I love everything about this car, except when I sat in one, the rear seats were very uncomfortable. Mat gives the low seats a mention here, but I think it deserves much more attention. It really does feel like you're squatting and there is no under leg support. Not nice.
