2020 Land Rover Defender Review

By Vikrant Singh05 Dec 2020

It started out as a rich farmer’s car. It then took on a cult status. But now it has transformed into so much more - the Land Rover Defender

2017 Land Rover Discovery First Drive Review

By Sagar Bhanushali29 Nov 2017

Although a brilliant family car, the previous-gen Land Rover Discovery (the LR4) was underwhelming to drive and felt utterly old-school. The fast-evolving competition didn’t do it any favours either and with the buying trends changing significantly all the time, Land Rover has had to add to the Disco’s arsenal, while retaining all its practical attributes and off-road ability.
