Very informative and written in a pleasant style.,
By peterwilliamson@btinternet.com (scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Land Rover Discovery 1989-1998 (Paperback)
This book is just full of interesting information about the Discovery. There are plenty of good quality pictures and the text is not dull. A good book to buy if you are thinking about buying one of these cars. Not any use if you want to know about general maintenance. But overall it is worth the money and even existing owners will find it worthwhile.

How did a 45M Investment Make Land Rover Millions,
By
This review is from: Land Rover Discovery 1989-1998 (Paperback)
This book will tell you the back ground behind one of the most successful 4x4 ever made. It took just 2.5 Years to develop and hit the number one slot in its first year of selling. If you have a Discovery or are thinking of buying one new or used, then this book will give you all those little bits of information that you wanted to know. A good read, at an affordable price.

Great info for Disco owners,
By David Ebsary - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Land Rover Discovery 1989-1998 (Paperback)
If you own a Discovery, irrespective of the country you are in, you will get a lot of info from this book. The Author has researched it well, and covers all the issues I wanted to know about my vehicle. Some of the photos are great, I esp. like the convertible model - a shame they were never put that one into production - I want one of those! This is not a technical manual as such, but it still has a lot of facts & figures. It is also helpful if you are considering options from other models and want to see what they look like. I have an ES model, but would like to get the factory wheel arch flares, and I know what they would look like... Recommended for a Discovery or Land Rover enthusiast, or if you intend to purchase one and want to do your research.

Enough detail to be interesting; coherently written,
By Simon Boothroyd - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Land Rover Discovery 1989-1998 (Paperback)
I read this book on the 'plane from Seattle to Chicago a week or so ago. Given the period '89-'98 that the book covers, I was pleasantly surprised to see the included material on project 'Tempest' (Discovery II) released in 1999. The author clearly had personal contact with many of the Landrover engineers and project staff for all three Discovery projects, and this added immensely to the value. Much of the material is apparently leveraged from earlier magazine articles which likely helped it be factually accurate based on Land Rover staff available when the article was first published. Thoroughly recommended for the Land Rover fan. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful:

A Classic,
By Mario - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Land Rover Discovery 1989-1998 (Paperback)
It is about the "old" Discovery (1989-1998) and James Taylor is probably the best person to tell us the story of this great vehicle. Every Discovery owner must have a copy of this book to understand the project evolution since 1989, with good information about its changes along those years (engines, gear boxes, electronics etc). There are good tips for those who want to buy a good second hand Discovery. In the end, Taylor describes the "New Discovery" project launched in 1999.
