This rugged SUV adjusts for all road conditions, thanks to its Terrain Response System with five settings and its adjustable air suspension with four settings. No matter what the road throws at it, the AWD 2008 Land Rover LR3 doesn't bat an eye. It continues to rate highly for its sturdy and solid, yet quiet ride, interior comfort and room, and off-road capability. For 2008, the LR3 drops the V6 engine, but maintains the 300-hp, 4.4-liter V8 and 6-speed automatic. Dropping the V6 means both the SE and HSE trims now come standard with three rows of seats. Both second and third rows fold flat, expanding the 9.9 cubic foot cargo area to 90 cubic feet. Plenty of head and legroom keep all seven passengers comfortable, though some say the third row is hard to access. The full-time AWD comes with a locking rear differential and high and low-range gearing for optimal off-road performance. It is helped by 18-inch alloy wheels, standard ABS brakes, Hill Descent Control, and traction and stability control. Keeping your family safe are the dual front and side curtain airbags for all rows. All trims come with full power features, leather seats, and a sunroof. The HSE adds parking sensors, a navigation system, memory settings, an upgraded Harmon Kardon audio system, and xenon headlights. The 2008 LR3 adds an 8-way power passenger seat and a power tilt and telescopic steering wheel function. Land Rover also dresses up the interior somewhat, with a variety of accent options, ranging from metal to walnut wood. Knowing the 2008 LR3 can handle a variety of driving situations is one of its big selling points, but ultimately most drivers will be transporting family around city streets and not uneven riverbeds. Plenty of storage compartments, cupholders, and stadium style seating serve this suburban need. Some negative complaints mention the sluggish acceleration (due to the weight of the SUV), its costly 12/17 mpg, early tire wear, and the lack of a more economical diesel option.

The LR3 is not everyones cup of tea, you have to keep in mind you are not paying for a Honda Pilot, the LR3 requires certain amount of maintenance and is the first owner fails to keep up with that, it will trickle down to next owners! Simple regular maintenance on this vehicle will cost you thousands of dollars! Afterall it was built for the purpose of off-roading and if the vehicle is not abused it will guarantee you up to 500,000 miles on the original engine and transmission! The suspension needs periodic check up while in service for oil changes and that can save you lots of money and headache! Highly advanced suspension well suited for on-road cruising and off-road adventures, fold-flat second- and third-row seats, opulent interior, optional Luxury Package offers a center console cooler, Adaptive headlights, 550-watt 12 Speaker Harmon Kardon sound system, powerful 4.4 Liter V8 with tons of Torque. The highest capacity towing capability of 7,700 LBS. This is a very solid truck that can handle any obstacle in its way. If it cant go over the hill, it will flatten it. Great cargo room and the best family car in its class! Rugged as a Tank, Plush and Comfy like its sister model Range Rover, the Land Rover LR3 is the epitome of class in the big boys 4x4 Luxury SUV range!

The Discovery 3 / LR3 has amazing off-road capabilities without sacrificing on-road ride and handling. The air suspension provides unrivalled ground clearance and while on high ride mode this beast managed to wade anything I threw at during it last summer's UK flooding. The interior and exterior design successfully combine toughness with luxury. The interior craftmanship was significantly improved compared to 2007 model. The 7 seat folding and stowing possible combations makes this the most adaptable SUV interior I've seen.

The vehicle is now 15 years old and we have not had a single problem. It rides really well and the4 V8 has all the power you need. We only have a little under 60,000 miles on it but we keep it as a gardening truck. Lots of room in the back. Much more than our new Range Rover Autobiography.

Great all around SUV for the family! Dependability ranks high, provided you follow the maintenance schedule by land rover and you have it serviced in a land rover dealership. I guess the people complaining about this car had it serviced somewhere else.

Only for Land Rover fans and enthusiasts... a fun daily SUV but if you’re not going down dirt, gravel, sand or snow you may be paying for more trouble than you need
