Who it suits. Drivers seeking a manual V8 special-purpose Land Rover Buyers who accept high annual gasoline spending

The 1995 Discovery is a specialized choice centered on four-wheel or all-wheel drive and a 3.9-liter eight-cylinder gasoline engine. Its 12 MPG combined rating, 11 MPG city result, and 15 MPG highway result point to heavy fuel use in everyday driving. A listed yearly fuel cost of $6,850 reinforces that trade-off. The five-speed manual transmission adds a specific driving setup, but buyers focused on running costs should look elsewhere in the Land Rover range before deciding.

What it is

The 1995 Land Rover Discovery is a special-purpose vehicle powered by gasoline. It uses a 3.9-liter, eight-cylinder engine, a five-speed manual transmission, and four-wheel or all-wheel drive. See other models in the Land Rover cars list.

The numbers

Its headline figure is 12 MPG combined. The rating is 11 MPG in city driving and 15 MPG on the highway, so highway trips use fuel more efficiently than stop-and-go driving.

What it costs to run

The listed annual fuel cost is $6,850. Tailpipe emissions are 740.58 grams of CO2 per mile. Those figures go with its gasoline engine and 12-MPG combined rating.

How it compares

The Discovery's 11-MPG city and 15-MPG highway ratings frame its 12-MPG combined result. To place those figures beside other Land Rover models, compare them in the Land Rover cars list.

Who it suits

This Discovery suits a buyer who wants four-wheel or all-wheel drive, a manual gearbox, and a gasoline eight-cylinder engine in a special-purpose vehicle. Its numbers make fuel spending a central ownership consideration.

Trade-offs

Four-wheel or all-wheel drive and the 3.9-liter V8 come with low fuel economy: 12 MPG combined, 11 city, and 15 highway. The five-speed manual gives the driver a manual transmission, while the listed annual fuel cost reaches $6,850.

Verdict

Choose this Discovery for its drivetrain layout, V8 gasoline powertrain, and manual five-speed setup rather than for economical travel. The 12-MPG combined rating is the key ownership number, and the $6,850 yearly fuel figure makes that clear. City use is rated at 11 MPG, while highway driving reaches 15 MPG. It fits a buyer who accepts substantial fuel expense as part of owning this older special-purpose Land Rover.
