He said, she said: Peter and Nikki test out the Land Rover Discovery Sport SI4.

Nikki Cousins and Peter Anderson road test and review the Land Rover Discovery Sport SI4, with specs, fuel consumption and verdict.

Land Rover (and Range Rover) are having a huge few years of new model arrivals and the latest addition to its range is the Land Rover Discovery Sport. Replacing the unloved (and unlovely) Freelander, it’s waaaay sexier and has a much better interior and mechanical package.

The Sport bit in the name is meant to do two things – the first is to link it to the considerably more expensive and very desirable Range Rover Sport and the second is to let you know it’s not the gigantic shipping-crate-on-wheels Discovery.

The Range Rover style also comes with Land Rover off-road chops, so it’s quite the all-rounder on paper.

Nikki and Peter and their alter egos Tara and Alana put the petrol version of the Discovery Sport to the test.
