I’m CarLuv, and I want to take you through everything I love about this 2018 Land Rover Discovery HSE Luxury. In the video I created, I walk around the car, show the key features and explain why this model is such a strong choice for families who want luxury and true off-road ability. Below I dive deeper into the details, add context, and answer the questions I get asked most often about this Discovery.Overview 🚙I like to start with a clear snapshot. This Discovery blends high-end comfort with genuine ruggedness. The model I’m describing is finished in Byron Blue metallic, wears 21-inch nine-spoke alloy wheels and fits a seven-seat layout. Under the bonnet sits a 2.0-litre SD4 diesel engine, which the factory rates at about 240 PS (the video quotes 237 hp). It’s paired with Land Rover’s proven four-wheel-drive system and Terrain Response technology.This is not a pretend off-roader dressed in leather. It’s a serious, family-friendly SUV that can tow, carry, entertain and escape the beaten track when you need it.Rear side view showing privacy glassExterior & Design ✨When I first saw this car I noticed the paint and the stance. The Byron Blue metallic gives the Discovery a strong presence. The 21-inch alloy wheels are large enough to look modern and planted while still being practical for mixed driving.Signature Hi-Line tail lights and LED headlights with DRLs give the rear and front a clean look.Privacy glass from the rear of the B-pillar back keeps passengers private and helps reduce glare.Sliding front sunroof and a fixed panoramic rear roof help make the cabin light and airy for all three rows.Powered gesture tailgate and powered inner tailgate make loading and unloading easier when my hands are full.The styling balances ruggedness and class. It looks purposeful on city streets and confident off road.Powered tailgate opening with gesture controlPerformance & Capabilities 🛣️I want to make the performance easy to understand. The 2.0-litre SD4 diesel is compact but strong. With roughly 240 PS the engine feels willing on the motorway and able in everyday driving. It’s efficient for its size and meets Euro 6 emissions standards, so it’s relatively clean for a diesel of its era.Engine: 2.0-litre SD4 dieselPower: around 237–240 hp (PS)Drivetrain: Advanced 4WD with Terrain ResponseAdditional: Stop-start system to save fuel in townCoupled with the 4WD system, the Discovery gives me confidence in rain, snow and mud. The electronic air suspension helps maintain ride comfort and adjust ride height for clearance. It manages towing and long, loaded journeys without feeling strained.Off-Road Tech 🏞️One of the reasons I like this Discovery is that its off-road features are real and usable. Land Rover’s systems are simple to use and effective.Terrain Response 2: Automatically adapts the vehicle systems to suit the ground you are on.Twin speed transfer box (High/Low range): gives genuine low-range gearing for steep climbs or slow off-road manoeuvres.Hill Descent Control: keeps the vehicle steady when descending loose or steep surfaces.Trailer Stability Assist: helps control a trailer while towing.Dashboard showing off-road controls and Terrain ResponseThese systems mean I can take the family camping and not worry about getting stuck. They also add peace of mind when the weather turns bad on long trips.Interior Comfort & Seating 🛋️I place a lot of value on comfort, especially when the vehicle offers seven seats. This Discovery doesn’t compromise in that area.Seating layout: Seven seats with a generous third row for kids and occasional use by adults.Front seats: 16-way electric memory, heated and cooled — ideal for changing weather.Second row: Reclining seats and two 12V charging points to keep devices topped up.Rear seats: Heating for added comfort on cold mornings.Upholstery: Full leather with extended leather pack for a premium feel.Interior three-row view showing leather seats and spaceThe second row’s ability to recline makes long journeys much more enjoyable. The powered inner tailgate gives me quick access to the boot without manually opening two separate panels. It is a small convenience that matters when juggling shopping bags and children.Technology & Infotainment 📱Inside, the Discovery feels modern without being overly complex. The InControl Touch Pro infotainment system is the hub for navigation and media. I use it for long journeys and daily use alike.InControl Touch Pro: Clear menus for navigation, audio and vehicle settings.Meridian surround sound: Delivers a better-than-average in-car audio experience.Rear headrest TV screens: Keep rear passengers entertained on long trips.Pro Services and Wi-Fi hotspot: Useful when I need to connect multiple devices.InControl Touch Pro screen and centre consoleI often get asked about the quality of the sound system. The Meridian system makes music and film audio feel much clearer and fuller than standard factory units. For families, the rear entertainment keeps the kids quiet on longer trips — and that alone is worth a lot!Safety & Driver Assistance 🛡️Safety features are a key part of why I recommend this Discovery for families. The car is built with practical systems that assist in everyday driving situations.360-degree surround camera system: Gives a complete view when reversing or parking tight spaces.Blind Spot Assist with Reverse Traffic Detection: Warns of vehicles in your blind spot and helps when reversing out of driveways.Lane Departure Warning and Adaptive Cruise Control: Reduce stress on long motorway runs.Autonomous Emergency Braking: Adds an extra layer of protection in city and mixed traffic.Traffic Sign Recognition and Adaptive Speed Limiter: Help keep the speed appropriate to road conditions.ISOFIX anchor points: Make securing child seats straightforward and safe.Driver assistance displays and dashboard indicatorsThe camera system and sensors make low-speed manoeuvres feel much safer. For my part, I appreciate the balance between driver aids and the ability to retain full control when I want it.Practicality & Storage 🧳Practical features often make or break a family car. The Discovery scores well here.Boot space: Generous capacity especially with the third row folded; the powered inner tailgate is very handy.Storage: Multiple cubbies, cup holders and a large central tunnel bin for everyday items.Charging points: Second row has twin 12V points; there are USB and device connection options throughout.Boot space and wide open powered tailgateWhether I’m loading pushchairs, sports kit or luggage, the Discovery’s boot handles it without fuss. Folding the third row is simple and can free a vast amount of space for big items.Specification Summary 📋Here I summarise the key specs and features in a clear list so you can quickly see what this exact car offers. I find a compact list helps when comparing models or discussing purchases with family members.Year: 2018Mileage: 48,343Owners: 2 previous ownersEngine: 2.0-litre SD4 dieselPower: about 240 PS / ~237 hpDrivetrain: 4WD with Terrain ResponseWheels: 21-inch 9-spoke alloy (Style 9002)Roof: Sliding front sunroof + fixed panoramic rearSeats: Seven-seat configuration; 16-way electric memory front seatsAudio: Meridian surround soundSafety: 360 camera, AEB, Blind Spot Assist, Lane Departure WarningExtras: Rear headrest screens, heated/cooled front seats, heated rear seatsMeridian speakers and rear entertainment screensOwnership Details & History 🔧I always check ownership and service history when evaluating a car. This Discovery has a comprehensive service history and only two previous owners. It was registered on 19 April 2018.That service history gives me greater confidence. Regular services and records of care usually mean fewer surprises down the line. For buyers, it’s worth asking for the full service book and any receipts so you can confirm timing belts, fluid changes and other routine maintenance were done on time.CarLuv contact details and call to action for purchase and shippingWhy I Love This Discovery ❤️There are a few simple reasons why I recommend this model:Versatility: It is a true all-rounder. Family life, towing, long motorway runs and off-road adventures — it can do them all.Comfort: The interior is well appointed and seats are comfortable for long trips. Heated and cooled front seats plus heated rear seats make a difference in changeable weather.Technology: The infotainment, Meridian sound and rear entertainment make every journey more enjoyable.Real off-road ability: Terrain Response, low-range gearing and hill descent control are not gimmicks. They work.Presence: The styling and Byron Blue finish give the car a modern, premium look that doesn’t shout but clearly signals quality.In short, this is a vehicle I would happily take on a family holiday, to a football match or up a muddy track to a campsite. It is flexible and robust while remaining refined.“Experience the ultimate driving adventure.”How I Use This Car Day-to-Day 🔁When I think about daily use, a Discovery often fits better than expected. It’s not too large for city driving and the parking aids help when space is tight. The ride height gives me a good view out, which I find reassuring in heavy traffic.School runs: Plenty of room for car seats and school bags; ISOFIX points make fitting child seats simple.Shopping and errands: Large boot and powered tailgate make loading easy.Weekend trips: Second row recline and rear entertainment make longer drives comfortable for kids.Off-road weekend: Terrain Response removes the worry of getting stuck on rough tracks.If you need a single car to cover lots of different tasks, the Discovery is one of the better options I’ve driven in this segment.Maintenance, Running Costs & Practical Tips ⚙️Diesel ownership has its pros and cons. The SD4 engine is efficient for the power it delivers, but you should follow some basic tips to keep running costs reasonable:Service schedule: Stick to the service intervals and keep records.AdBlue and emissions checks: Modern diesels often use additional fluids and sensors; keep these topped up.Tyre care: 21-inch wheels look great but can be costlier to replace. Check tyres regularly and watch for curb damage.Software updates: Keep the infotainment and vehicle software updated through Land Rover or an approved dealer.These simple checks help avoid common issues and protect the vehicle’s value over time.Test Drive Checklist ✅If you come to view or test drive this Discovery, I recommend checking these items to make an informed decision:Inspect the bodywork and wheels for signs of knocks or repairs.Check the service records and verify the mileage.Try all seating adjustments, heating and cooling functions.Use the Terrain Response system and low-range gears if you can test off-road or on a steep slope.Confirm the 360 camera and parking sensors work in tight manoeuvres.Listen for any unusual engine or transmission noises during different speeds.FAQs ❓I often get the same questions from people interested in this Discovery. Here are straightforward answers in plain language.Is the 2.0 SD4 engine powerful enough for towing?Yes. The 2.0 SD4 has enough torque and power to tow modest loads. The Discovery’s drivetrain and trailer stability systems make towing stable and safe. Always check the exact towing limit for the vehicle and ensure your trailer and load are within the legal limits.How practical is the third row?The third row is best for children or occasional adult use. It folds away when you need more boot space and is easy enough to access from the second row.Are running costs high for a Discovery?Running costs are moderate for a large SUV. Diesel helps with fuel efficiency on long trips, but maintenance, tyres and insurance are higher than for a small car. Regular servicing helps keep unexpected costs down.Is the infotainment system easy to use?Yes. The InControl Touch Pro is logical and responsive. The Meridian sound system is a noticeable upgrade over basic audio units. If you want online services, check if the car has an active Wi-Fi hotspot or if the previous owner left any subscriptions.How does it handle in town?It handles urban driving well for its size. Parking aids and the 360 camera make close manoeuvres simple. It feels stable and the driving position gives good visibility.Final Thoughts 🏁I believe this 2018 Land Rover Discovery HSE Luxury is an excellent choice when you need one car to cover family life, long journeys and occasional off-road adventures. It offers comfort, advanced technology, and genuine off-road capability in a refined package. The Byron Blue finish and 21-inch wheels give it a modern look while the interior remains family-friendly.If you want a full viewing or want to ask about global shipping, I invite you to get in touch via my listing at CarLuv.
