2005 Land Rover LR3 SE 4x4, Fully Loaded, Zambizi Silver/Black Leather, 69,000 Miles

2005 LAND ROVER LR3 SE

Our experience with our LR3 is very comparable with the reviews from various auto reviewing organizations. Our family took good care of the SUV and she took very good care of us. We maintained the vehicle at the dealership and
were very pleased with the service we received.

Aside of the normal wear and tear (slight scratch on the right rear plastic wheel well guard and small scratches on the driver side door) this vehicle was respected with a heated garage and babied by a hand detail every 10k miles. It was treated as a $50,000 vehicle should be treated.

This Land Rover LR3 combines go-anywhere off-road capability with responsive on-road performance in a vehicle that is comfortable, safe and secure. This LR3 offers the competence of the more expensive Range Rover and some of its
luxurious feel. Underway, the LR3 feels stable and composed, with little noise and vibration transmitted into the cabin.

This LR3 is built with what Land Rover calls integrated body-frame architecture, which combines hydroformed steel frame rails with a rigid monocoque body shell. Rubber mounts and dampers between the frame and body provide isolation from noise, vibration and harshness. Premium materials such as aluminum, magnesium, and high-tensile-strength alloy steel are used in key areas to save weight. Outer steel body panels are two-side galvanized to prevent corrosion. The two-piece tailgate is aluminum for ease of opening and closing. This approach accounts for much of the LR3's relatively light weight, crisp handling, and solid feel.

The V8 engine is sourced from Jaguar. It has variable cam phasing, develops 300 horsepower and delivers strong throttle response with 315 pound-feet of torque on tap. It comes with a six-speed automatic. The LR3 is the first
vehicle totally developed by Land Rover following its purchase by Ford Motor Company in 2000 and a $1.4 billion overhaul of the Solihull manufacturing facility in the UK.

This LR3 incorporates the latest in electronics in a system called Terrain Response, which selects the best combination of traction, power, gearing, and braking to suit any type of terrain and surface, to put serious off-road trekking within the reach of most enthusiasts. Simply twisting a knob to Grass/Gravel/Snow, Mud/Ruts, Sand, or Rock/Crawl optimizes the settings for the LR3's mind-boggling array of electronic controls and traction aids. In short, if there's somewhere on the planet the LR3 can't go, you probably
don't want to go there by land vehicle, anyway.

Safety equipment standard across the line includes dual front airbags; torso-protecting front side airbags; head-protecting side curtain airbags for the first and second rows; tire-pressure monitor; and LATCH child seat
anchors. Also standard are four-wheel disc brakes with ABS, Electronic Brake-force Distribution, Cornering Brake Control, and emergency Brake Assist; Hill Descent Control; traction control; and all-terrain Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) with Active Roll Mitigation. The four-wheel drive
system is also standard.

The SE comes well-equipped with leather, sunroof, a 300-watt Harman Kardon stereo, automatic climate control, power everything, and a long list of the latest safety features.

Cold Climate Package ($1,050) includes heated front windshield, heated front and second-row seats, and heated windshield washer jets.
