You & Your Land Rover Discovery - Buying, enjoying, maintaining, modifying

Introduced in 1989 in the campaign to repel the Japanese 4x4 invasion, the Discovery opened up a whole new market for Land Rover, creating its own niche halfway between the traditional rough and ready Land Rover off-roader and the upmarket Range Rover cruiser.
Its reputation as a rugged workhorse both on- and off-road has ensured that the Discovery has remained one of the world's best-selling 4x4s since its introduction.

Extensive model history, advice on purchase, use, maintenance and modifications. Also specifications, model changes and production numbers. Entirely in colour.
