Wow this wasn't just a review this was a brilliant documentary on Discovery! ;)
Probably the best video on the Discovery Sport I've seen... it's convinced me I'm making the right decision for my needs.
This is honestly one of the best things I’ve watched in a long time, just brilliant 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Very good review! Reason why I'm watching is because I got a Disco Sport as a loaner car, it has amazed me a lot, it handles good, easy to park, can handle the basic off road stuff, and for some reason it has a bigger second row than the full size Disco. If you're in the market looking for a small SUV and want something that could do a little more on the weekends this is perfect. But I would never trade my Full Size Disco for this, personally.
I love this. Brilliant documentary on old v new and evolution of LR.
Great video, very informative, thank you! btw I've had a Discovery Sport HSE for 30 months now. Loving it even more after your review!! :)
You have a wonderful non biased review, an open mind helps people see clearly, thank you 👌🏽👍🏽
I love my Disco 3 .......Drove a 2018 Disco Sport HSE for 8 days and can't wait to get my Disco 3 back
Just traded my ageing disco for a sport. Luvvin it, and this wonderful, genuine, from the heart ‘review’ captures exactly why. 45 minutes long, the end came too soon 👍🏻
I recently drove a Land Rover Discovery Sport 2016, 13,000 kms, from Toronto to British Columbia by way of Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Saskatchewan, Alberta. And then home, via Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, Nebraska, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan in a five week period including a lot of fly fishing. The vehicle was superb, on the highway, in the mountains, off road, and carried fishing gear and a lot of equipment. Great on gas mileage and the smoothest ride. The only requirements for me in future would be a winch, towing gear for a pulling a drift boat and a snorkel. Looking forward to a road trip to Puntas Arenas, Chile for the ultimate road trip.
john walker I am glad to hear you liked it. I’m going to buy a used 2016 Discovery sport. I’ve had 3 range rovers in the past. I then bought an Xterra Pro 4X and a Cadillac SRX. Now I’m going back to Land Rover. I left LRJ after BMW then Ford bought them, because my last RR was nothing but problems. I’m only going to have about a year on the warranty though on the Discovery since it will be used, so it’s making me a bit nervous.
Great Video Production, Video Stills & Hosts. Your Channel Will Go Far My Friend.
Such comments are very much appreciated. Thank you!
Looking at getting a disco sport and stumbled across this video. Bloody awesome man! I’m now sold.
That was a really awesome review! I have a Freelander 2 V6. And i can tell you i was very impressed with it offroad. Only been stuck once :P
Perfect lifetime review. Of course it smells a lot of money.The parts are expensive and it should travel all the way from England but its functional. I am using an HSE in India and I must say that this is an awesome SUV. Tackles almost every thing, because I worry about the side panels. If I get a rugged scratch proof surface all around the car then this is one hell of an SUV.
Awesome review! Saw an interview on another channel. Guys lets get this channel the 1000 subs it deserves!
Very much appreciated. Thank you!
Awesome video. I like the vibe. I had a nice Land Rover Discovery Sport experience. Thank you.
Well if this doesn’t shift a few more land rovers I don’t know what will. A really quite brilliant video Thankyou
Thank you. Very much appreciated, indeed! 🙏
This is the first time I’ve come across you channel and I have to say, I think I really like your approach to reviewing. What I mean when I say - I think-, I wasn’t to sure at first as I was expecting a typical car review, but your editing and cutting from one scene or topic to the next was very organic (bit like my thought processes) and personable, like talking to mate even though you don’t know me. Of course the photography, especially the aerial was great, gotta get me one of those Mavic Pro’s.
Anyway what I mean to say is, I enjoyed your review and I think I’ll subscribe to your channel.
This is amazing. I hope you expand your channel and review Jeeps, Fords etc. I just need an overland capable 4x4 with 7 seats that gets 25+ mpg and can be found used under $25k to be used as a driver, can tow my boat & light trailer, handle trips to the Eastern Oregon desert and also be fun to zip up hwy101. I'm not sure if there is another rig that qualifies. I don't even think i have to have the diesel. My LR3 was everything i needed but i can't get a diesel in Oregon.
Thank you. I'm certainly working on expansion. I've got to finish the 30+ films I've already filmed first. Unfortunately there's been a few disasters within my family which need attending to. Once I'm free I'll be gifting the channel my absolute all.
@@landroverphotoalbum Hey man, i hope things are good with you. I made an offer on a green '16 hse yesterday and thought of this video. I hope you've given some more thought to growing this channel. The internet is chock full of people reviewing rigs like this that don't know their subject matter or come off like a paid ad for what they're reviewing. This video is a true benchmark.
This video is superb. Very well done. Subscribed
Amazing work 👏🏾 about to buy one, and this video has completely affirmed it for me
Great video, enjoyed it a lot. Great story telling and editing. Love it!
I love your review, is like something I never watched before! I’m gonna keep watching mate!! Question: have you tried the 2.0 diesel 180cv engine? What do you think of it??
This masterpiece deserve more likes/views! Great review!
I truly agree with your point on the old car costing cheap bucks vs new car. I have 4 cars. The oldest/cheapest/simplest I respect the most.. My new X5 which I have paid for more than all the other cars together is the one that gets the most beating and the least respect.. I take it to the tip and it aint no garage queen. For the money paid, it better be the best in everything. When looking at these cars I really am afraid of the electronics and the complexity of technology. Ive been driving 3000miles and have been seeing 3-4 error messages which eventually went away after turning the car off and on again. But I wonder what it will cost me in 10 Yrs time to have these faults repaired..... Very nice video, true thoughts. Keep it up!
Freelander 1 facelift TD4 HSE auto. 169000 miles off road, UK Kosovo 5 times still perfect.
If LR have half a brain they're going to ve sending you a vehicle to keep or a bag of cash. What a review, well done!
This is by far one of the best RUclips videos I’ve seen. Fantastic production and a good everyday review. It’s helped me square the circle in the belief a Discovery Sport can be a suitable replacement for my Discovery 4. Potentially not meeting all the challenges you could overcome with a full blow Disco, however, how often do we ever put them through it. 2.5Tones towing capacity means you can still move a lot of equipment with it. Minds made up now. My next Land Rover is going to be a Discovery Sport 2.2 HSE. Thank you 👍
Thank you. Very much appreciated!
It´s also convinced me that it´s the right choice to replace my wifes Touareg, I own a Disco 4 as a farm workhorse@@landroverphotoalbum
Thanks for making this film. Way more useful to see what it's like to live with rather than a bunch of stats that the salesman will tell you. Coming up to possibly change my XF and would like to go back to landrover. I started with buying a series 1 and restoring it when I was 16. Owned a few. The garage are talking Velar or RR Sport, but I'm thinking of reducing my car costs, wondering whether this was a viable option. Your film is a big tick in the disco sport box. Cheers.
Very likeable guy! Makes me want to watch more *subscribe*
OMG, glad someone else does the car spotter game, thought me and my husband were mental lol
Cracking vid mate, saw Disco Sport and a 45 minute run time... 45 minute later
Awesome video my friend. Thanks for sharing.
give my regards to your entire family
especially your Dad
WoW,its a beautiful video,thank you very my friend, from Montréal
Really good vid - I thoroughly enjoyed it. My ex wife has had one of these for 2 years and loves it - but she doesn't use it for much apart from commuting and running the kids about. It has, though, been faultless and is a comfortable place to be.
Brilliant review, so refreshing to see a “real practical review”.
As someone who is looking into purchasing a family friendly 4x4 for the first time that’s big enough for 2 golden retrievers and will be reliable and last for a good number of years this looks perfect.
Reliable and LR don't belong in the same sentence.
Best review of the Discovery Sport I’ve seen and you should get commission from Land Rover!
There's no way I will watch a 45 minutes review... found myself writing this 45 minutes later :D
Bought a 2016 Disco sport HSE black. Came here to assuage buyer remorse, job done thanks. What I actually want to comment on is your dad, what a legend, just that limited screen time you can tell he knows his shizz and even better, you can tell he's your hero, just simply lovely.
All the best and thanks for the excellent real life appraisal
You're utterly spot-on. He's gonna love your comment as much as I. I hope you're enjoying your Discovery Sport as much as I hope you are!
massive respect
Really enjoy the vid. Thx
I was wondering if you could sleep in it, as I'm pick one up tomorrow. Great review!
Brilliant video. Quirky but well put together.
Gosh it would probably feel and drive even more amazing if you could put 17 or 16 inch wheels with way thicker rubber on their to be able to are down more seriously. Not saying it isn't doing some good things with those tires and wheel size but gosh for someone who knows just how much some small wheels with thick rubber are down can do it's hard to imagine how much more awesome that four-wheel-drive system would be with some real thick rubber underneath
Excellent vid mate. Iv got a 04 Disco Td5 but really getting fed up of having to turn the steering wheel 5 times to take a 90 degree corner. (And yes iv got a steering knob) Whats the steering response and turning circle like on the Sport plz???
Keep up the good work!
Excellent. Night & day from that if the D2!
Great video! Nice channel - currently got a Freelander 2 so think one of these is next. ps, could you let me know where the heathery hill is around the 9minute mark, stunning views! Cheers!
Drew Buckley hi. I'm glad you enjoyed. The Freelander 2 is a cracking machine. The scene you're referring to was shot in North Wales. Unfortunately, I can't offer the location, I'm afraid.
Excellent review thanks.
Enjoyable video, well done. I just bought a 2020 disco sport. Im 32, its my first land rover and I have wanted one since I was a teen. This video made me very excited. I'm picking it up in 1 day.
Superb video. Thanks for making it.
Well that was different ! And I actually wanted to know could I sleep comfortably in the back . Ha well done, thanks
Ba ha haaa "You know what pendantic means?"
"Yes"
"Oh"
"Your FACE!"
Contemplating buying this car and now I’m comforted I’m making the right choice. What an amazing video and review...never seen anything like it and one I will never forget amongst the usual fluffy car reviews. You have given an honest, heartfelt, balanced and real life consideration of the Landrover Discovery Sport. Thank you, does not cover it. Amazing is closer. You legend.
Wow! Thank you ever so much
absolutely great vid you made here! Thank you much!
Loved your video! Sold me. Keep it up.
What a heartfelt, interesting, wandering, inquisitive, lovely tribute. I drove one of these at the Land Rover Experience center in California and was shocked by how much I loved it. You’ve done a huge service to Land Rover for the way you did this video. Great job. I love your thoughtful, romantic / pragmatic balance. And the videos are like hanging out with you for a few days. Very well done, thanks.
Thank you so much, Troy. I'm so pleased you enjoyed it. Expect a follow up film soon on the new Discovery Sport.
@@landroverphotoalbum Sounds good. I will look forward to it. In a world of 1 minute instagram videos, your slow, thoughtful, and considered videos are a nice change of pace. I know you mentioned in one of your videos something about a "Discovery focused" video but I went through and could not find it. Was it posted here on youtube? I'm about to buy an LR4 and build it up for overland travel and would love your thoughts on that model. Thanks again. Keep up the good work. Also, did you say you owned over 100 land rover vehicles??!?!
@@Ta50039 the Discovery film is due soon. There's another scene I need to film next week to finish the film.
@@landroverphotoalbum I'll look for it. BTW, I just bought my first ever Land Rover. I'm 50 and wanted one since I was 12 or 14 and first saw one on TV. Picked up a 2013 LR4 (Disco 4 outside of the US). Looking forward to the adventures with it.
Informative, cinematic, adorable. 👍🍻
My family is land rover infected. My mother owns a new rande rover discovery sport my brother owns a 1980 range rover and a discovery 2 i own a discovery and my father owns a original 3 range rover 1967 a range rover vouge first generation with 12000km and a range rover 1976. and we currently sold a mark 2 land rover. These cars may not be the most practical in cities but for offroading they give so much joy and are so reliable
Quality video, editing and content.
#Aspiring
Brilliant video, seriously thinking about buying one
Brilliant vid - but - Landrover spend millions making their cars incredibly capable off-road, not just off-tarmac, so why not get your money's worth? I have an FL2 and RRS, and I hit the mud in them - real nasty mud. They are both brilliant vehicles. If I could afford a new Disco Sport, I'd want to see what I'd paid for, and see what to could really do. If not, I might was well buy a Ford Kuga and just get it dusty. Sorry - this isn't addressed to you, just an anxt with RR reviews in general. Your vid is refreshing!
Excellent review thank you. Just bought a 2017 Disco Sport HSE. Really impressed with it and left my work car on the drive way since i bought the disco! My wife refuses to allow me to take it off road though!
Clicked the video thinking I’ll skip to bits I’m interested in. Ended up staying for the duration great video and now I think it’s made my mind up
Great video, answered a lot of my concerns! Cheers !
As you know we have a Defender 110 (it has the smell you mentioned here), I have had a Discovery 1 previous to that, but we also have a Discovery Sport and it has blown me away both on road and off-road, I love them all in their own way as they all do different things... Good video on the DS, some beautiful shots of our home area.
Rented one in Japan. Absolutely loved it. Excellent driving position, good adaptive cruise control, nice visibility and space. I want to buy one.
Great Video! Have just chopped in an FL1 for a new DS and loving every minute. Miss the hippo but DS a lot more versatile as you say
Very well shot and assembled and great thoughts. It's hard to classify a vehicle like this in the crossover category because, well, it crosses one type of vehicle (a traditional SUV) with another (a wagon) so you end up with something that is by nature neither here nor there. The easiest way to do the sums for me is to think of it on a slider scale of competence for its intended use - where a wagon is far left on the slider as a daily driver and street biased runabout, and something like a defender is far right. You have to take stock of where on the slider your needs are and shop there - occasional light duty off road but mainly wagon stuff? Discovery sport. More aggressive and frequent duty off road use? Discovery. etc. That being said, I think they missed an opportunity not to do low range. The GNK drivetrain is tied to the evoke platform so they were hamstrung there but there is an option out there that could give real low range and have fit without too much repackaging in the AAM ECOTRAC II
Great Film, I had a freelander 1 td4 loved it. Looking for my next landrover, maybe a RR or Discovery sport.After watching this I am swaying to the discovery Sport.
Thanks for this brilliant film. I am a freelance travel photographer and have been looking for a car that I could use to travel the UK next year. Short term sleeping in it was a prerequisite and the Disco Sport is really looking like the car of choice for my needs. I will probably get something 3-4 years old, is there anything I should look out for?
regarding issues - I've only had positive experiences. As a manageable opulent workhorse, you're going to be thrilled!
10:18 Huh! Great insight. "You feel the new car owes you - You feel you owe the old car." I think you hit the nail on the head there. Explains a lot of how certain cars get under your skin. They elicit those feels.
Awesome review, thanks for putting this together
Simply brilliant. Loved it . Living in the Darjeeling Himalayas with so many old Land Rovers plying around Pre world war 2. I can co relate. With your video I am so tempted to buy the LL Disco. Thank you
Nice video/film. My freelander 2 has been a trusty companion for 17 (!) years now. I’ve done a variety of test drives over the year in Jeeps, BMW’s, Toyo and the new Defender, as I expect the FL2 to die on me at some point. But it doesn’t. It just keeps going.
Sure I had some maintenance done but only normal wear and tear tbh. Nothing faiked prematurely. And here in the snowy Alps the 4x4 system gets a proper workout too!
But if it needs replacing, a second hand disco sport seems like a no-brainer.
Thnx!
If I hadn’t already been dead set on one of these, this video would’ve done it. Such a pleasure to watch.
I bought this 4 ywars ago back in 2016, very happy with it; only complaint is its a little thirsty in a city but on the notes super economical
Well done and well
Made, just like the new Discovery sport, the personal touch with dad and with family, loved it all, thank you for a genuine and personal review, i'm about to sell my wife, children and family home home to buy one, and gran and grad dad, x
Magnificent video. Very captivating and informative. Gotta love Rovers!
Tell you what you are bloody brilliant at this cinematography
Incredible journey! Loved every minute.
Nice way to end d video. Sounds of waves.
Amazing video! So many places we visit each weekend too. Well done 👍
I have never commented on watching a video on youtube, this is the first time. Brilliant!
This is, without doubt, one of the best videos on any subject that I was fortunate to find on RUclips.
Having never owned a Land Rover of any type, the new Discovery Sport has certainly got me interested. I couldn't afford to buy a new version, so I've been looking at the many RUclips review videos. I've heard of the reliability problems that seem to surround newer Land Rovers and that is probably my main concern, but your superb video was a pleasure to watch.
I hope that the decision makers at Land Rover have seen it as it would make sense to give you the vehicle for a much longer period and allow you to use your filming style and descriptive skills for further in-depth videos.
wonderful video. I see your love for the car. great work
I have always had LandRover vehicles and currently have a Range Rover Sport and a Discovery Sport. The Discovery Sport is 66 Reg and done 39,000 and have had no and I mean no issues with it. Only thing I don't like about it is mine came with no spare wheel. It came with a chemical injection repair kit which is of zero use if you put a 1 inch tear in the wall of a front wheel tyre which I did and had to call out the RAC for a lift home. Not the vehicles fault, I didn't check the vehicle spec when I bought it from the Landrover showroom.
Great vehicle, comfortable to drive, very reliable and my three rather large golden retrievers love it as well!!
This is definitely the best LR Discovery Sport vid I’ve seen!
You are too kind. Thank you very much!
It a freelander 3 but with a extra 2 seats in the boot
Absolutely! A win!
Ummmm! What is it about Landrover's? I have owned 4 Series lll and your comment about that smell is very true! I like the first range rover, and love defenders, driven loads, I adore the shape. The Discovery 3/4 is beautiful to look at, but I do not like this new discovery at all!! Sorry to say. It looks like it is trying to fit into a category of a little of everything, trying to be politically correct. I do like your way of reviewing however. My paragraph has a lot of I's in it, which is indeed like saying one mans meat is another mans poison, and this is probably the point. Personal likes and dislikes, feelings, experiences and the like affect us. This Discovery doesn't do anything for me at all.
Thank you for taking the time and trouble to post this.
Great video very informative and lots of lovely landscape shots. Where is that beach it looks awesome?
Black Rock Sands, Porthmadog, North Wales
If I were Land Rover I would love your film. I really enjoyed the film and I am no land rover fan 👍
awesome review
I really enjoyed watching this video
How can this get 33 dislikes? Utterly brilliant. Lovely to hear from your daughter too. (The Discovery sport is so similar to the Velar in price/size its hard to choose....)
Awesome video! It’l be a classic one day, and hopefully will the car as well!
I had no problem with FL1 if it had a transfer box it would have been better
Insightful.... and good videography. Cheers !
Your daughter is a great reviewer
Wonderfully done mate
Simply outstanding 👌
Built not bought, for me. This was a brilliant film! Kudos!
