Road and engine noise are both good and I found no real beeps or baby waking noises with Discovery Sport. BUT it does feel a little bit lurchy or reluctant to go when accelerating from still on occasions. The Discovery Sport feels really solid and robust to drive and despite that the steering is light. The air conditioning in the Discovery Sport is easy to use and there are pillar vents in the second-row pillars which made a big difference on hot days, they provided a nice subtle airflow without blasting the rear passengers.

Click here to learn more Although I didn't get to test the seven-seater I think given the size of the Discovery Sport that if you had a third row of seats in there the boot space would be very small. The boot of the five-seater opens and closes silently which is lovely and it was adequately sized, holding 14 shopping bags and depending on the needs of your family, it would hold all size prams or strollers with shopping bags in there with them. (Or if you have a toddler empty sultana boxes fit quite nicely too □ There is also a central seat back fold-down armrest with two cup holders and covered storage for a phone. There are a lot of USB points in both rows, there are some in the central console box and in the back of the central console box for rear passengers. Storage is quite good although none of the door bins would hold a large refillable water bottle which is always Disco-pointing! The glove box is a nice size to hold an iPad and wallet with the manual and there is a lined glasses case in the ceiling. The interior of the Discovery Sport is very pleasant too, the seats are nicely leather upholstered. Legroom was really good in the five-seater Discovery Sport, the second-row seats do slide back and forward on a 60:40 split and in the furthest back position, we had plenty of legroom for a 182cm passenger in front of a rear facing child seat. I could fit two child seats into the back of the Discovery Sport, there was just enough room for me to sit between the two child seats when using the ISOFix. They are positioned flush with the boot floor so I found them really difficult to access and the fabric on the seatback made them difficult to connect to and I kept connecting on to that rather than the anchorage. The top tether anchorages on the back of all three second-row seats are not within plastic guides, they are right down the bottom of the seat backs. There are ISOFix points in the two outer second-row seats, within plastic guides and easy to connect to. Also, to access the third-row seats you would need to uninstall a child seat in order to bring one of the outer second-row seats forward and have room to climb through in a seven-seater model. However, I enquired with Land Rover and there are no top tether anchorages or ISOFix in the third-row seats. The model I tested was a five-seater, so I couldn't test the third-row seats.
