I'm Andrew, married, four daughters, two dogs, one cat and live in Haslemere near Guildford in Surrey.
As a driving school owner, I spend a lot of time on the road covering in excess of 40,000 miles a year.
I have longed for a Discovery for some time and am in my final stages of choosing my first. With limited funds, I am going for a Discovery 3 either an SE or HSE on an 05 or 55 plate to avoid the ludicrously high road tax,so any advice from you learned members in terms of things to watch out for, would be very welcomed. Recommended dealers too would be great.
One was Walton Motors but having read a long list of really poor customer reviews, I'm having second thoughts so your advice would be great.
Thanks and looking forward to enjoying a fast learning curve!

Welcome to lz, Andrew!

Four daughters and a driving school sounds like you must be a busy man.

I don't know much about D3s myself, there are some on the forum. Try a search for common issues etc in the Disco forum, post a fred about any specific issue you cant find would be my best suggestion.

Just call me Turbo, most do. Less typing.

There is a long history of Landrover product being used by big families. When I was at school there were only really two choices for those with four or more. LWB Station Wagon, or Transit Minibus!
