Land Rover Discovery Ultimate Off-Road Review | Eastnor's Extreme 4x4 Playground
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- Picture this: The keys to a Land Rover Discovery, 66 miles of untamed, variable off-road trails and an instructor telling you to treat it like a playground. Yup, the dream. Except Land Rover gave us TWO. This is our review of the Land Rover Discovery, to test just how incredible it's off-roading functionality is, at Land Rover's vast testing ground, Eastnor Estate. This is where they put all Land Rovers to the test - and if they don't pass the course, they don't make the cut. So, ever wondered just how much extreme terrain a Disco can handle? We went to Eastnor to find out. Enjoy the ride, GTD'ers.

Smaller wheels and mud tires will take that thing further places. Good to see land rover vehicles being used how they are supposed to be used
Because LR biased the vehicle towards towing over offroadability, they put big brakes which in turn hinders you from using smaller wheels (16"s) and meatier tires. Notice how skimpy they drive on rocks at 12:00 because the rubber is too skinny for that kind of terrain (and it's not even hardcore). It's a compromise LR is willing to take.
Honestly i think land rover is the finest and most perfect vehicle production from all over the world 🧡
You know it's owner is Indian
Most unreliable too
@@lindas5247 what do you mean?
No a rolls Royce is
Try Jeep Grand Cherokee awesome four wheel drive
Thanks guys. Really convinced me that Disco is the way to go. Wasn't sure which off roader I wanted
Good to hear, it’s extremely capable, you won’t be disappointed!
Check out Tata harrier, it's built on same platform and is much cheaper to buy
@@tanaygupta5310 it is FWD mate, it would get stuck on the first sight of mud, BTW i like harrier but it is not a land rover, it is just a crossover for the city lads...
WOW ~this is definitely all Range Rover owner will do on their luxury suv
I love comments like these. Yes, I get what you are saying. I do. Typical Range Rovers will probably not ever be used for these conditions. But its a cool capability to have.
Maybe its just the American in me, but we typically like things that can do a lot, but we may never need. Its just really nice to have.

Julio Maldonado don’t get wrong with me, I’m a big fan of Range Rover too😂😂 I love watching those extreme off-road vids
Best video on the Land Rover Experience by 4x4 by far! Incredibly awesome!!!
Not a single second forward ! Loved the video ! A proper offroading day !
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it- hopefully we’ll be doing some more soon!
@@GuysThatDrive absolutely
Nice to See Landrovers Working,I Got in a Brand New Range Rover at One of these Offroad Events And Was Pleased to Get in the Front Seat,Upon Setting Off the Driver Said After Moving 1 Foot !!!!!Its Broken You Will Have To Get Out.
I love landrover
Four wheel drive car is most beautiful and more power.
I m from India🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
You know the guy is an Indian if he writes full positive comments about range rovers.
Rob is my favourite 'Guy That Drives', wearing these fantastic rubberboots!!!!!!
really enjoyed that and what a great instructor Clive is. So calm and collective and funny to.. :-)
Clive was a brilliant instructor, really brought the whole experience together
Ahhh Land Rover. The symbol of quality and durability!
LMAO sarcasm
@@plantpower3048 Want to laugh even harder? I just bought a 2012 Range Rover with close to 97,000 miles on it...
@@LuisMartinez-ft9or thats crazy, I am test driving a discovery this week...would only buy it with warranty
@@plantpower3048 Well, get ready to laugh even harder than before. I bought it with no warranty! LOL All jokes aside, it has impeccable service records and looks flawless inside and out. I bought it cash, so I have no payments. It's just one of those things. For the amount of money I paid for it, I wouldn't even be able to buy the cheapest Hyundai.
@@LuisMartinez-ft9or well enjoy my man
10:17 You can see how smart the TRS is ,It immediately cut engine power to wheel without traction
Yes saw that
They all look nice and confy, but once the warinty is over...the endless problems start and they never finish.
You have one ?
We have an orange color one, in the HSE luxury trim, and it’s not that comfy compared to our bmw X7 M50i. The front seats are great with memory foam, but are a bit stiff, and the rear seats are hard, and reclining is a joke.
Looks are wonderful, but it’s under-power (340hp) and the steering is heavy, also you know you are driving a big heavy vehicle, while the X7 M50i feels more stable and lighter, but all 4 wheels steer, and it has 560hp (actual hp) so it adds stability that the discovery won’t have.
We got it as a toy for off-roading, and so far so good.
We love the looks, the two sunroofs, the color, the beautiful materials, and the fun to go on hills.
As for warranty, bumper to bumper warranty is a must.
Also, gas mileage is a joke. We get around 10-13 mpg, our X7 gives us 15-20.
@@DanDan-tt6gv have you had any problems with it?
Richard Hammond hits everything 😂😂
I wouldn't mind doing this but without the instructor. Don't get me wrong he's a nice fella but I rather I did it myself as that's part of the challenge
Would be good but they’d never give a random person a car of that value when it can be damaged in that environment so easily. Would be nice to have a bit more of a play though definitely
LR really should fit an all-terrain tyre for these LRE vehicles!
The reason they don't is because very very few people who own newer LR fit off road tyres.
And the point is, that the vehicle you drive on these experiences is exactly what you'd have at home.
Most will have all weather tyres fitted. Not all terrain, all-weather / all seasons. A little more reliable in slippery conditions, but where every LR does 99.9% of it's travelling, it outdoes an all terrain by a long way - acoustically and grip.
meh not needed all terrian's are useless on the road
What an interactive video.. Was full of fun...
Now this is called off-roading!! Wow!!
Abhishek Giri not really, not at all. Look up Australian 4wding on UA-cam you will see some amazing stuff
@@ramudithadesilva8547 Aye, this is hardly a prelude to off-roading. I've never seen Aussies driving Range Rovers, what Shauno and his cohorts do in the wild wilderness with Patrols and Cruisers is beyond the ken of Land Rovers. Most of the Land Rovers are complete junk and money pits in the name of off-roading vehicles.
Excellent video guys!! Looks so much fun!! Delighted to see all you boys wear your seatbelts in the backseat too!! Keep up good work!!
Thanks very much, it was a lot of fun - impressive how capable the disco is
We don’t wanna know 😂 u can tell he loves his job that land rover man
Nice 👍 love these vehicles and this just proves why I’ve always loved Land Rover
Great stuff!
Did that myself in a Range Rover - highly recommended day out!
Fakuo
Best off road video iv seen. Awesome camera shots! Kept video interesting all the time! Congratz! 👍
Cheers! Glad you enjoyed it
You have lived a sheltered life then. We have many 4x4 available in Australia that would leave these things dead on the side of the road.
@@kelvin869 Well im from Southern Sweden, so iguess you have to excuse my sheltered destination... But to be honest im glad for that since i own the 2017 GTI Clubsport (called: "40 Years" in Australia) which is lowered from factory 😄 (Check it on my channel if your into performance hatchbacks! Vagsport Resonator delete kit & Stage 1 tune video coming up soon!) 👍
Doubt I'd have the patience for this 3 blokes!!!
Now do a video with the New Defender!!! Good candid moments
it's a fantastic drive, and the video is incredibly awesome. what a coveted experiment driving place to have fun with.
True
I love my 2017 HSE I6. Beast off road. 80k miles now
15:15 You have a better chance to win a lottery than see this Disco still run after 10 years of light offroading.
Stfu with the reliability jokes!!!they r now pretty reliable
@@justchilling998 sure man. Buy them.
Proud to be an indian because now tata motors own the land rover and now land rover is an indian brand
I loved it ! If had money would buy it! Will buy it one day for sure

No dout LANDROVER is leader in off roading

Marvellous! Love it!! Excellent chaps!!

Best video I have ever seen..im planning to buy but confused about reliability of d5 long-term and which engine options to choose??please advice me...

Just bought one of these last week. I want to take it off road now 😁
Such a harrrrrrrd task achieved.
I have 325000 ks on my d4 , never missed a beat ,, just service them and there good ,

Hamster's Tree lol. Shots fired.
I love land rover 4x4 from Thailand
I done the all day course on a one to one plus go-pro filming last october 2019 it was an awesome day it had been raining for a few days before but the sun came out on my day and i was in a disco too lots of mud and water just awesome
It’s so much fun 👍
Are you interested in sharing the video pretty please? thanks if you do.
Great video. Good to see you guys wearing rubberboots!!!!!!!
I wonder what brand of rubberboots Rob is wearing..... They look like LaCrosse.....
It's Eastnor Castle in Ledbury, still a bit of a way to Wales
I can’t help but wonder if those paths were prepared with hardcore under them to stop the cars Breaking through.
Absolutely that's what I was thinking! Also if you take those low-profile tires and drive them on a rocky Jeep Trail over here in the desert and Southern Arizona here in the USA and those tires will be popped instantly and the rims will be scratched. Knowing just how dramatic the traction and the ride increases when you air down bigger tires on something older like my disco 2, I can't imagine how much greater a new Land Rover would feel on the proper tires and wheels with low air
As for me, the stirring wheel is located on the wrong side.
Gosh it would be amazing defeat some smaller Wheels with way taller tires and then air those ones down. I can see those Wheels almost touching the rocks. Take that disco down to the desert and Arizona and climb some of the Jeep trails that would shred those tires open almost immediately. Not to mention way too bumpy not being able to air those down much. Being someone who drives a discovery 2 with 33s that I may I air down I know the dramatic difference of even those 33s being firm or soft so I can't imagine how wonderful that advanced Discovery Sport off-road system would feel with some thick rubber underneath if it does that good with low profile tires
Two thing you need to know if you are not a good driver. Know you vehicle firs if is FWD or RWD or AWD or 4x4WD then make sure you have the best tire for you weather conditions you should be fine driving in any weather conditions as long you know your vehicle And have good tires
I love these videos svr and this
Send this to Karachi...That will be its fitness test for life xD
do you know. this company owned by an Indian ratan tata.

That’s us too!
I'd like to see these guys driving on roads like Transamazônica in Brasil 😂 They need to learn a lot about off road driving skills 👍
You’re right, proper off-roading skills are not learned overnight.
We’d love to drive on serious roads too one day on an incredible road trip
O amigo pegou pesado hein hahaha. A Transamazônica realmente é pra quem entende!!
Discover thee the desires ♥️
Awesome. Made my next purchase decision easier
9:01: don’t touch the breaks
9:19: break lights on 😂
The system still turns on brake lights as it automatically uses the brakes.
It’s never hard to do off road one or two times
But , particularly, the most important feature for a off road car is reliable . So, Toyota is the best
Go to Middle East , go to Serbian . You will know why
😅😅😅😅....the legend Richard Hammond!
Who will win?? Land Rover vs Ford Rapture
6:21
You can stall that automatic because it is not an automatic. It's a dual clutch transmission.
Best car
nice video guys 👍🏿 from indonesia 🇮🇩
was this the half day or the full day?
This was the full day, well worth it as there is so much varied terrain to cover. Half day would be over too quick!
13:11 “D for datway” 😂
Es la mejor guagua lan Roven....es mi sueño y Yo soy el dueño de una de ellas color azul pero gracias a Dios porto ....Ya la tendré en mi manos un dia de esto ...gracias a Dios por todos...
Super excited 😍😍nice video , love from India
What's the title of the background music play at 4:06?
ua-cam.com/video/eKw1zcKaRx4/v-deo.html
very cool guys !!! did you have to air down the tires for the trail?
Hi guys,what engine were the Discos equipped with? I assume 3litre diesels?
Why everytime you show inside of the car.
That really making me angry...
worst review ever.
Because we were driving it from inside the car. Move along, don’t bother watching any of our other vids, you’ll unfortunately see us driving other cars from the inside too
@@GuysThatDrive Really?! Okaaaay! Now after reading this wisecrack of a comment of yours that, I have realized what I have been doing wrong all these past 23 of driving my cars. I'll let you in on a little secret. I've been driving sitting on their roofs! Bloody mean & rude jerk!
Nothing rude from us, just asking you to kindly not watch any other vids if all you can say is “worst review ever”.
@@GuysThatDrive Your choices mentioned below
1. Learn to take criticism in your stride.
2. Ignore the negativity.
3. Disable commenting on your videos.
4. Stop uploading them in the public domain, since you can't really control all those who comment.
5. Find an alternate profession.
Take your pick!
🤣
6. Continue as we are and have fun replying to comments like these.
We choose 6.
Been round this with Freelander 1 TD4 auto facelift 179000 miles no problems.
What year& model is this car? It’s perfect
unbelievable ....real machine..cant find a better alternate word for reliability .....LR discovery.. the name says it all...
Does it have center diff lock @3:40? Were all 4 wheels spinning?
I Love LAND ROVER ♥️♥️♥️♥️
When you went in the water did any water get in the suv I’m asking because I live in Texas and I have drove my discovery in a small flood wasn’t so deep maybe above the rim and water got in. I got through it but the floor of the interior was soaked.

Great program, quick question 🙋♂️ we’re they normal road tires?
Yup
Show me how u operate the internal function while going roadtest
Wild born car ....🔥🔥💯💯
Incredible vehicle, incredible Tata
9:18 the sound of someone have diarrhea in the toilet 😂😂
Really awesome
What was the series of the discovery 5? SD4 or SD6? Great video
Did they lock the rear differential at all??
Well come to india in rainy season and see how people drive much cheaper cars on roads.
We’d love to come to India!
That guy @1:51 looks like Andy from the office
Very nice 👌..
tell the big fella at@13
DONT POKE YOUR TONGE OUT !
One bump and you will loose it !
Nice one
To do off road, do we really have to purchase the “Advanced Off-Road Capability Package”?
What options are in that package? My wife drives a discovery sport but im not that familiar with the brand.
Wheres this experience to I want to do it wheres it to exactly
He he he, i think The New Defender is much more better than Discovery.
Nice car
Does these trims have the air suspension?
Yep the discovery has air suspension
They are very happy to driven this car off road ,in India we can drive every car off road because some part of India there no road 😂😂😂😂
This car would do well in India then, extremely comfortable off-road!
if you already use MT tires, then the problem is with the driver
Range rover sport can do like this?
