2006 Land Rover LR3 Consumer Reviews

I am the 3rd owner but the 1st & 2nd owners are. The 1st and older sister bought it brand new from a dealership in Florida and gave it to her younger sister the 2nd owner. She “the 2nd owner” lives in Springfield, MO, in the country and hardly ever drove it, her & her husband already had 2 other vehicles. So she sold it to me.

Like the generation of Land Rovers of its time, the 2006 LR3 has been, for me, a perfect match of smooth, quiet, comfort, while exuding confident control, like you're riding on rails, while possessing the substantial off-road capabilities that Land Rover has become famous for. The LR3 is so much more of a vehicle than the Discovery I and Discovery II, which it replaced. There is a night & day difference that you can only detect when you drive the vehicles. The LR3 brings more of the pure confidence on snow and ice, much more like its big brother, the Range Rover. You truly can go anywhere with these vehicles and do so in luxury that defies the muscular underpinnings of the vehicle. During our 8 years of ownership, the optional 3rd row jump-seating has come in very handy in allowing us to have 7 people enjoy the fun of a snowboarding excursion and hauling our big crew and our boat to the lake. the back seats fold perfectly flat for hauling home trees/plants, or home improvement project materials. The luggage rack and tailgate ladder are heavy duty and very useful for hauling as well.

Bought used in 2018 with 130,000. Since then, my air ride suspension has went out as well as the starter and have both been replaced. My vehicle can be doggy at times when first started or after sitting at a stop light. It does seem to sway a bit more than most SUV’s while on highways. Other than that, I absolutely love the comfort, style, and sound system in the vehicle. I have even slept in it while camping. Put the seats down with some blankets & watched a movie on the tv! Luxury at a affordable price

I bought this SUV used in 2006. This car is user friendly, rides well, comfortable seats, excellent visibility, handles well in town, open road and off road. One of the best cars I have owned. Still after all these years performs well as a daily driver with everything still working. I prefer this car over my 2011 Landrover Lr4. Do not hesitate to buy a Landover. Top quality!

We had one of these in South Africa as well as a Defender 110. Very comfortable ride, 7 seats (Rear Seats fold into the floor), and plenty of cargo space with the rear seats folded away. On road it is a champ with smooth ride at highway speed and a great stereo system. Off road it is a beast that will take you places the you wouldn't think possible in an LR3. Great vehicle, moderately bad fuel economy, but overall a good value.

Simply FIRST have a dealer check out the car then treat yourself to a very nice ride! I have owned many cars including three Mercedes E350s My 2006 purchased used off lease in 2008 LR3 rides and drives like the E-350. Just have an authorizes dealer check it out. Buy one under 100k miles then enjoy a cheap luxurious and fun car for $7,000to $9,000. I still own the 2006 Lr3 with 233,000 miles $800 year average maint. You are welcome!

I slide too and fro on the hard driver seat when manuevering around the Wilde Beasts (the other vehicles on the road. hahaha)

Perfect off road, towing capacity and smooth ride both on open roads or street...love this cars, just find a good mechanic, don't use dealership fire repairs.
