Default Beautiful LR3

this is an amazing vehicle. I went to the LR dealership in Charlotte today on my lunchbreak to inquire about where/who I should contact about buying or looking into an old series truck. The manager there refered me to Jack Frasher, who I've yet to call. However, I googled him and found one of his dealership's website, the one in greenville,sc, and I found this LR3 on there. Enjoy.

I like the looks of that one, too. They also have a zebra-striped one that looks like smashed cat's ass...

There is something about black that makes everything look better. I like that whole set up, still not cheating on the Disco.

It's the inverse negative version of mine!

It's amazing how wheel treatments completely change the character of the LR3, from blandmobile to full on aggressive

Yes...that one does look fine...but, there is just something about the LR3 that makes it look more like a "mommy-mover" than a real SUV.

The disco 2 has an elegant, masculine, unique, compact, look that the LR3 just can't aspire to...not matter how much lipstick you put on it.

Just my 0.02USD...

this LR3 isn't a mommy mobile, and theirs plenty of others that are built up too. and a disco can look like a mommy mobile without lift,tires and bumpers.

I rather like the new Discovery, what land rover have always been famous for, is producing vehicles which are timeless and classless. But lately, they have been accused by the majority of the public as being unimaginative. I think the new discovery holds both these qualities, along with the other land rover prerequisite of being an extremely capable off road vehicle. The other thing the new discovery represents, is a confident step into the unknown, these vehicles look fantastically purposeful, especially with MT tyres and a winch!

So, in summary, these vehicles are not just "mummy movers", they are an excellent demonstration of what land rover stands for.

top gear
follow the link, and in the second box listing videos, is one entitled "Discovery up a mountain" enjoy!
