I spent 8 weeks test driving and looking at many 4x4s

Disco was too agricultural, grand cherokee had awful rear leg room.

X5 is big, is very comfortable for the whole family, handles extremely well and is reasonably powerful.

You tested the wrong Discovery. The ride in my D3 is sublime, easily as nice as the ffrr. The EAS system in the Discovery 3/4 knocks spots off old fashioned coils under the X5 and you can take a Discovery off road.
However I hope you enjoy your choice, I love the Hitchhikers title reference ;)
