The new 2009 Land Rover Discovery 3 goes on sale in the UK in August, priced from 29,950. The eye-catching exterior revisions for 2009 add fresh refinement to the acclaimed exterior design incorporating new front and rear body colour bumpers, body coloured wheel arches and revised exterior detailing.

The pure and clean exterior design has been refined with a re-profiled front bumper, (body coloured on all models), and revised rear bumper and wheel arches, which are body coloured (standard on all passenger carrying derivatives). The distinctive, asymmetric two-piece tailgate now comes with body coloured tailgate lift handle and the attention to detail continues with the revised 'tungsten' coloured side vent, 'tungsten' door handles, and clear-lens side repeaters across the range. 

A new 19-inch 7-spoke wheel style and three new exterior metallic paint colours Santorini Black, Galway Green and Bournville [black with a hint of brown] complete the exterior changes for 2009. Interior upgrades include a new 'almond' trim colour and an updated Bluetooth system.

John Edwards, Land Rover UK managing director, comments; "With almost 100 international awards to date, the Land Rover Discovery 3 has earned itself a reputation as the ultimate all purpose vehicle.  The latest revisions add to an already class-leading package, building on the Discovery 3's unique position as one of the most versatile vehicles on the market."

The new 2009 Discovery 3 receives its UK debut at the British International Motor Show which opens on 23 July, 2008.
