Vehicle Type LR4 owners typically rave about excellent ride quality on everything, buttery-smooth performance from the nearly undetectable V8 engine, tremendous confidence during off-road driving and in winter conditions, and the abundant style, comfort and pedigree built in. Luxury SUV History/Description Most folks don’t buy a

There must be something in the water at Land Rover's headquarters in the English Midlands town of Solihull. Either that, or the company is intent on making a specific model for every member of the British royal family, who've long favoured the company's vehicles for driving around the grounds of Balmoral, attending polo matches, and whisking newbor

After over a decade of wandering through the proverbial desert, the Land Rover Discovery is back again as a 2018 model. Although the Discovery name never died outside of North America, Canadians have gotten used to calling it by its LR moniker, with the LR4 the most recent edition of the full-size luxury SUV to have been offered on this side of the

Whether you’re a family-man, real-estate agent, product sales rep, or just really want to impress the socks off of your future in-laws, the benefits of owning a Comfort Cruiser are numerous and undeniable. Passenger volume, a comfortable ride to coddle passengers of note, and stately looks that’ll stir your clients and in-laws. A Comfor

Land Rover employed helicopters, a Bear, and a replica of the Tower Bridge – which used a Guinness-record-breaking 5,805,846 Lego bricks in its construction – to launch the Discovery. The Land Rover Discovery is the all-new replacement for the three-row SUV we called the LR4, before that LR3, and before that... Discovery. The new seven-seat SUV

Capability. It’s what Land Rover has been about since Day One. The ability to go just about anywhere, regardless of whether someone had bothered to build a road or not. Over the years, Land Rover has added more and more luxury with each successive generation. Now, the iconic Discovery has traded upright and functional for sleek and fashionable.

It’s thanksgiving this weekend: a special time of year where people everywhere get together with loved ones, hastily shovel poultry, potatoes and gravy into their yaps, and then ignore the mountain of dishes while struggling to fight off the tryptophan coma and stay awake past the 8 o’clock news. Thanksgiving is also a time to reflect back on th

“Oi! Don’t spill my coffee!” At first glance, you might feel as if the Discovery is playing on its heritage.... You’d be wrong. My co-driver has her arms in the air, letting her body move with the seat, trying desperately to keep the coffee cups upright. We’ve abandoned the cup holders. Sturdy as they are we’d rather take matters into o

Happy Year of the Goat! Though in some circles it is known as the Sheep. But other than that astrology is guaranteed to be 60 percent accurate, more or less, at certain times, depending on the waning moon or which house, um, Neptune is in. The Chinese Zodiac has a rich and colourful history, and they’re all animals with interesting personality trai

You could be forgiven for thinking that 50 Shades of Grey was written about a visit to the local auto mall. Talk about your masochism – justified by reasons of resale, ease of maintenance, or just plain lack of choice, the automotive world has gone all monochromatic. Black, white, or some version of soulless grey, that's all we get. But in the

It was under wraps, but it was pretty easy to discover what was undercover. As the fastest-growing luxury brand in North America, Land Rover has definitely seen a resurgence over the past few years with models becoming more stylish and more luxurious while retaining their legendary off-road capability. The Land Rover Discovery is also set for a

Technology is neat. It allows humans to fire lasers into space to examine distant objects. To turn on our porch lights from the other side of the world. To take high-resolution videos with our cellular phones. To talk to just about anyone, anywhere, anytime we like. Leave your feet on the floor. Steer with one finger. Relax, as the Discovery

When the Carthaginian army crossed the Alps into Italy, taking the fight to the Romans on their own turf, it would become one of the ancient world's most famous military achievements. Hannibal's use of armoured elephants as shock troops to send the well-disciplined Roman forces into disarray should have been a masterstroke, but the charismatic gene

It’s a pretty rare occurrence that someone gets into a vehicle and declares nearly immediate they want to purchase it. It is even more rare for this to occur with every passenger that sets foot in your vehicle. But that was the case with the 2016 GMC Yukon Denali that I piloted over the holidays. No, I am not exaggerating in the least, every s

Day 1 Hey this week it's a soccer-mom mobile for me. The incredibly popular Acura MDX , for me the 2015 model loaded up to the nine's in the Elite package. This version is loaded – if not a little pricey for an MDX at over $65,000. But being the Elite model it certainly is the most desirable, this SUV has everything one might need including
