Then in 2005 we hosted a 2006 LR3 (the Discovery by any other name) that we loved in nearly every way, but the weak low-end torque from its V-8 had us eyeing the European-market turbodiesel with envy. And although it wasn't the quality-control nightmare the '96 Disco was, the LR3 had its glitches as well.
