Thought you might be interested
They are different. Speaking from a users point of view not an engineer........
The 4 rode better on the road (but it did have 100,000 les miles than the 3)
It took us awhile to figure out the locking scheme. Seems how you lock it make a diffetence on what does when you unlock it. And how you unlocked.
(It has those small buttons on the door handles for locking)
The nav is intergrated. No way to change it out like the 3.
It rides better on the rode again, may have been difference in milage.
4 has more acceleration and the ZF tranny seems to like the
torque curve of the 5.0 better than the 4.4 (but my 4.4 may have been a little tired)
The 4 requires unicorn tears for engine oil. (If you want to use the factory listed oil, it is impossible to find locally and if you do, it is $13 to $15 a quart.)
Other than that...... Same car.
If you understand the maintnenace requirements of these cars, either one is a good choice. If i had the money, I would think about replacing my 3 with a 4, but a 2007 LR3 with 176,000 won't. be much of a down payment, even for a 2010 LR4. bUT I dont have the money only alot of LR stuff so I will buy another LR3
Hope you find the one you want
