Introduced in early 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 had ensured that the Discovery has remained one of the worlds best-selling 4x4 vehicles since its introduction. Designed to appeal to all Discovery owners and enthusiasts, this text explores how the car came about; how it became a success; how to go off-roading legally and safely; how to buy, maintain and modify a Discovery; and specifications for all models.
