The LAND ROVER DISCOVERY 2 (1998-04) 5DR SUV 4.0 V8 XS 7 SEAT AUTO4 is a large, seven-seat 4x4 SUV, aimed at buyers needing space and genuine off-road ability rather than a compact family crossover. In the UK used market, it is an older, characterful alternative to mainstream family SUVs. Mycarcheck.com records 80 look-ups covering 29 distinct VINs, giving a useful snapshot, though not a measure of every Discovery. The average private-sale valuation is £1,400, with average recorded mileage of 116,000 and annual mileage of 2,000. Checks also show around seven previous keepers on average, so review each vehicle’s history carefully. That V8 and automatic gearbox make it relaxed and composed, while seven seats suit families, outdoor enthusiasts and towing needs. Expect fuel use to be higher than smaller rivals, and age means condition matters more than badge appeal. Compared with SUVs, the Discovery 2 stands out for charm and all-terrain capability.
