You completely missed the point of the Discovery i am afraid, while it matches the Volvo and Audi for SUV luxury etc, it leaves them in the dust from an offroad capability perspective, the Discovery can go places offroad that the Volvo and Audi could not even consider going....
I’m struggling to see why people think this is ugly. It’s strikes me as a superb piece of kit. Something for Brits to be proud of. Indian owned maybe, but great r and d in the UK.
Lost soul of original generation. Boxy style. Now it is more like a new car by new brand from a disctant view. We buy discovery bcs of its style instead of how luxury inside
you fail to mention that the discovery has a full size spare wheel while the Volvo and Audi do not. Thats a big thing. You also do not mention that the discovery has low range and real offroad capabilities while the Audi and Volvo do not so you are really not comparing apples with apples at all. Compare the disco to toyota prado and jeep grand cherokee and the audi and volvo to bmw x5. there is no real content here other than what has already been seen and heard by many others.
I think she speaks well. It allows people who might not have English as a first language. This is for everyone to understand, slower and pronouncing every word without too much of an accent . Well done
There is an additional large storage space once you push the front seat cupholders forward AND if you push the PUSH button at the stereo, and your car isn't equipped with the optional CD player, there's a storage behind the screen once it flips down.
Of all the Land Rovers this is the one I like the most. To me it looks the most interesting but I would have loved to see a more pronounced stepped roofline as I feel that feature really signifies the Discovery and also makes it stand out from the other raft of 'look-the-same' 4x4s.
Hardly any on the road so underrated. If I came into money I'd love the discovery, looks so cool. Kind of car where the neighbour's would think you've got serious cash.
No mention of the DPF regeneration problems which result in oil changes much sooner than normally required, due to diesel diluting the oil. Research this before buying one.
“Rough edges’ in the interior. Q7 and XC90 “beat it in town” (the LR’s natural habitat). I concur having driven all three. The XC90 felt better for me. Only downside is one size of engine (2.0lt 4 cylinder). The XC90 also has more usable luggage space when all 7 seats are used.
Rebecca you have started to sound sounds like clarkson as you finishes your sentence in a higher pitch and pause to look at the camera smugly. Lay off the fake tan as an English rose you really don't need it. Do admire your opinion as know of your true driving history and pedigree so value your opinion.
Good looking in a slightly quirky way, back end is slightly too big, dont like that tan colour, sound it makes was better previously but get your hands on and it should perform well, as for the car no comment.
Well, I think its a really nice looking vehicle inside and out :D Great stuff, Great review as always. Other than better fuel economy, the only design improvement I could see would be a split tailgate. otherwise its pretty awesome.
What on earth happened to ur voice Rebekah ? The tone is like a drone on every sentence...just talk like ur having a normal conversation not like ur reading a script.
I have a question: Why can’t the more expensive Discovery models with a CD player read your text messages out loud like the cheaper ones without a CD player?
She has changed her voice from her days at CarBuyer. I prefer how she used to review cars then. This almost sounds as if she is targeting the US market with her reviews coz she is speaking so slowly to enable the special US audience to understand her British accent.
Hi there, I have gone through a youtube video nearly a year back. I am not memorizing the car but it have heated steering wheel, gear knob, door handles & seats. Also equipped with adaptive headlights & shockers, it have 100% LED and the company claims that not a single bulb have been used. I believe you know the model or the series. Thank you.
Rebecca; you should narrate these videos like you're actually in 2017, not in 1985. Very off putting to listen to; tone down and up again and tone down and up again, repeat..... Otherwise the review it is good.
You look stunning and beautiful. You have good presentation skills and you know lot about cars. You also look beautiful while driving. Good work keep it up .
Audi seems to be doing a good job getting to these youtube presenters. So there seem to be an army of reviewers you really go overboard praising Audi cars. But the Audi can never go to every place a Discovery can. Period.
This is undoubtedly an excellent car but the styling is awful. The sleeker styling does not suit such a tall car and the high rear end with the offset number plate is dreadful. The first time I saw this car I followed it round a large roundabout. The car leaned a lot and it looked as though the number plate was sliding off! The bronze colour is horrible.
Am I a bit dim (probably) but I am not sure there is an issue logically. If you want a vehicle to go off road, then this vehicle doesn't have much competition. If you don't want or need to, then other vehicles are better. If you don't want to go off road why get an SUV at all? Estates, hot hatches, people carriers etc would be better and cheaper. I drive a Golf GTI and a Boxer van. If I wanted an SUV, I would buy a chunky 4 year old Discovery MK 4 and do serious lugging.
I am concerned when she hit the button for the sat nav the screen faded and came back. Hopefully the screen didn't freeze and required to be rebooted. I mean it's a Land Rover so it's quite possible.
Drivel, the discovery was meant to be an off-road vehicle with on-road manners. Land Rover no longer make an off road vehicle which is very sad, all models are on-road SUVs. The styling on this model is awful from the rear and I strongly suspect sales will reflect this
Yes it’s floored with rough edges isn’t it.........like where? It’s this, it’s that but Audi and Audi and I love Audi.....voice commentary irritating. Car seems fine just the annoying noice I could hear throughout the review was the problem, yes the presenter.
You completely missed the point of the Discovery i am afraid, while it matches the Volvo and Audi for SUV luxury etc, it leaves them in the dust from an offroad capability perspective, the Discovery can go places offroad that the Volvo and Audi could not even consider going....
I was exactly thinking about it!
99% of Disco owners don't even go to such places.
I’m struggling to see why people think this is ugly. It’s strikes me as a superb piece of kit. Something for Brits to be proud of. Indian owned maybe, but great r and d in the UK.
Indian made ?
It is designed and built in the UK🇬🇧
Doesn't say Indian made, it says Indian owned. Big difference.
The rear *cough*
Lost soul of original generation. Boxy style. Now it is more like a new car by new brand from a disctant view. We buy discovery bcs of its style instead of how luxury inside
Just swapped from a Q7 to discovery,, 6months later I'm glad I did switch
Terrible decision
How has reliability been so far?
Any update on reliability?
@@sammyboo1992 This is what I want to know!
Any update on Reliability - hopefully you did not go for the 2.0L

oh thanks. I was wondering about the spare wheel, if it has one and if so, where is it?
@@zagonde it is under the rear of the discovery
It will never touch the Volvo capability and safety.

Hi
Does it have high and low height adjustment system for offroad terrain
Hardly any on the road so underrated. If I came into money I'd love the discovery, looks so cool. Kind of car where the neighbour's would think you've got serious cash.
Remove the rear centre headrest (keep it in the boot) aids rear visibility considerably.
4:35 is that on the top left side of the screen the level of battery? Of the car?
This a very big powerful SUV .Looks gigantic on the road.Would be buying one soon.
Great Video Review. The New Land Rover Discovery won the Overall Car of the Year at the 2017 Auto Express New Car Awards
That was the best Disco review.Thanks for that .
No mention of the DPF regeneration problems which result in oil changes much sooner than normally required, due to diesel diluting the oil. Research this before buying one.
Can't afford the car nor the babe! Life sucks!!
You are regular joe
I am handsome but no money
@@matebreskovic5880 I’m pretty well off but ugly. Pick your poison lol
Nothing more brights up my lunch with Rebecca's cheerful, singing voice.

Rebecca reviewing cars is great but i suggest that she talks a bit about design (optional) because she does her job perfectly💗

Lee Mas LMAOO that’s actually quite funny, she sounds like old top gear clarkson
Fake tan suits her but her voice is quite noticeable.
More like a Vicky Butler-Henderson
Speak first few syllables at one pitch, pause, raise pitch, go back down. Drop pitch for last word and lengthen word.
And you point is....
Good looking in a slightly quirky way, back end is slightly too big, dont like that tan colour, sound it makes was better previously but get your hands on and it should perform well, as for the car no comment.

Awesome voice Rebekah. I could hear and understand everything and great review. I love this vehicle.
Bit estuary.
Is the intelligent seat fold pack necessary?
Are the headrests removable for use as yoga blocks?
Why is the number plate so lobsided?
AdvancedEliteGaming Discovery Stroke Edition.
AdvancedEliteGaming check this history of this model it's always been this way.
What on earth happened to ur voice Rebekah ? The tone is like a drone on every sentence...just talk like ur having a normal conversation not like ur reading a script.
Like Alan Whicker
She always sounded like that. But her bosses have pissed her about in the past. Maybe she was just fed up.
what tint is that on the front window
At last a little more about the drivers seat adjustment. Good review Rebecca and hope that we hear more in future reviews about adjustment etc.
I have a question: Why can’t the more expensive Discovery models with a CD player read your text messages out loud like the cheaper ones without a CD player?
I like the rear, with that color too, she is just one piece anyone would enjoy.............. her accent is also nice ;)
She has changed her voice from her days at CarBuyer. I prefer how she used to review cars then. This almost sounds as if she is targeting the US market with her reviews coz she is speaking so slowly to enable the special US audience to understand her British accent.
Rebecca, your emphasis in your speech is all over the shop. it's erring on irritating which is a shame as have previously enjoyed your reviews
Don’t be such a twat
Her voice drones more than a CVT on a Subaru...
.....but look at her......and block your ears.
She's hot though so it's all fine
what do you mean by a conventional 40, 20, 20 arrangement?
6:53 You're welcome.
Thank you, good Sir.
What's rims size
'More smoother' ?
Modern tortology, almost everyone does it. Drives me nuts.
More smoother?
good review and very unbiased, Rebecca. I think u are working out too much now-a-days - muscle power :)
Hi there, I have gone through a youtube video nearly a year back. I am not memorizing the car but it have heated steering wheel, gear knob, door handles & seats. Also equipped with adaptive headlights & shockers, it have 100% LED and the company claims that not a single bulb have been used. I believe you know the model or the series. Thank you.
Perhaps the Merc S-Class ? I recall a review 1-2 years ago saying it had all LED lighting, no standard type bulbs. Let me know if you work it out !
I love her reviews. And Mats, still. And the intonation is just ok, as far as I'm concerned.
meryuk Ginny Buckley is the best!
I very much enjoy your reviews good work.
She slags it off pretty much through the whole video and ends with saying few cars will suit you better if you want a large SUV?
because she knows it cant hold a candle to either the Q7 or XC90🥈
How good is it off road?
Hey Presto very... talk land cruiser & wrangler capabilities on street tyres
I find the design fantastic. Great looking car.
no, wrong, what were they thinking
i'll stick to my defender
🤢
Rebecca dont be put off by some of the negative comments here, your way of narrating is your style, I happen to find it interesting and listenable to.
Rebecca; you should narrate these videos like you're actually in 2017, not in 1985. Very off putting to listen to; tone down and up again and tone down and up again, repeat..... Otherwise the review it is good.
You look stunning and beautiful. You have good presentation skills and you know lot about cars. You also look beautiful while driving. Good work keep it up .
I disagree.
Simp
It looks really nice but I’m not completely comfortable with the number plate placement.
Working out in da gym...strong biceps
I have Toyota Hilux 1996. I love my hilux. Can you review that old hilux?
Why does the title of the video say 2019 discovery when the car has a 66 plate?
Here for the Rebecca comments
Hi, can someone make a long term reliability test, that is where I need to draw my conclusions from. Thank you.
Audi seems to be doing a good job getting to these youtube presenters. So there seem to be an army of reviewers you really go overboard praising Audi cars. But the Audi can never go to every place a Discovery can. Period.
good idea to have dropped rear head rests for better view that go up if rear doors open
LOOKS NICE BUT A TONNE OF problems from electronics to call in it SPORT? SPORT FROM A DIESEL?
Land Discovery remains the king of SUV'S.
David Singleton 4x4s
Can you put wifi and satnav
This is undoubtedly an excellent car but the styling is awful. The sleeker styling does not suit such a tall car and the high rear end with the offset number plate is dreadful. The first time I saw this car I followed it round a large roundabout. The car leaned a lot and it looked as though the number plate was sliding off! The bronze colour is horrible.
And it’s got an absolutely unbelievable reliability rating all the way down the pit in the gold mines

The wings on the driver seat makes it less comfortable for wider persons.
Awesome motor and seriously hot presenter 👌
Better than my Suzuki Alto then....
You are A QUEEN of car reviewing 👑❤
I lovw this car, how much is this
What's more orange? The fake tan or the Discovery?
I am concerned when she hit the button for the sat nav the screen faded and came back. Hopefully the screen didn't freeze and required to be rebooted. I mean it's a Land Rover so it's quite possible.
I want one of those so much it hurts...
It's the size of a small bungalow, far too large for UK/European roads and car parks
rebecca is gorgeous good luck from Poland and don't listen to all those ugly posts..
Ohhh!!rebecca...u take my breath away!!
Have you turned into Alan Wicker?
I love the color of your nails for this review.
why dont suvs have tail mounted spare wheels anymore? :O
Now they all look like fat overgrown hatch backs!!!!
which one??
land cruiser, patrol, discovery even the crv, rav etc lost their tail mounted tyres!!!
As far as I know they've stopped offering that thing. And honestly with the looks of SUV's today it's not a bad thing to get rid off.
everyone knows the correct size hatch back is the mk7 GTI
Son , i have a mounted spare tires maybe in the lowest trim
Itz good but I prefer Volvo, 😉
lol ur tricep is more muscular then mine
CV1 1FE is a Nando's... CLASSY!
Great car!
Reliability is always going to over shadow any perks this car has for me, shame because it’s a stunning looking motor
I think I am ready to rob a bank now... Definitely worth it but I am poor 🤔🤔
Lovely review. One of my favorite suv's.
Drivel, the discovery was meant to be an off-road vehicle with on-road manners. Land Rover no longer make an off road vehicle which is very sad, all models are on-road SUVs. The styling on this model is awful from the rear and I strongly suspect sales will reflect this
no body on frame ford explorer looking crossover is not a King of SUV. real suv died with discovery4/LR4
Beautiful and i don't mean the car :)
Why does the car suit u so well
Goes pretty fast down hill
Yes it’s floored with rough edges isn’t it.........like where? It’s this, it’s that but Audi and Audi and I love Audi.....voice commentary irritating. Car seems fine just the annoying noice I could hear throughout the review was the problem, yes the presenter.
It’s been king forever
More smoother! Really? What has so called journalism descended into when basic English becomes a challenge.
LC 200 period that's king
Wouldn't mind a right good ride in that - but she'd need to keep that mouth shut 🤐
I somehow think a pervert like yourself would not be invited...
Horrendous mpg on the V6!
HAIRY ARMS !!!
Nigel Old & Grey Yeah but your old and grey. Meaning you cant afford to be fussy unless your name is Sean Connery.
What a body!! Land Rover is pretty nice too.
Sounds like the female version of Jeremy Clark son
Who is Jeremy Clark and who is his son you refer to...
A small lad with long hair
Honestly, can she not talk like a normal human being?
