Land Rover Discovery 2.0 review: Less is roar
A smaller engine for the Land Rover Discovery does little to detract from its family-friendly qualities
HAS this ever happened to you? You're supposed to collect your wife in 10 minutes from somewhere 20 minutes away when she calls to check if you're on your way, because women are wise like that. Of course you are, you tell her. Then you scramble to put trousers on and scurry to the car.
For a situation like that, you'd imagine the perfect machine to save you from ruin might be something decidedly zippy and fast, say a Porsche 718 Cayman or a Volkswagen Golf R. But no. What you really want is something like this, the Land Rover Discovery.
How quickly you can get somewhere depends on how swiftly other drivers get out of your way, after all, and little else is better at clearing a swathe through traffic than a giant Land Rover.
