Land Rover Discovery

Land Rover Owner International Show at the East of England Arena, Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, England, United Kingdom, on Saturday 15th September 2018.
About the photograph.
This is a first generation Land Rover Discovery.
I admit that the Discovery Series I and Series II looks too similar to me, so I can’t be sure if which one it is.
This is a five-door model, and I can’t be sure if it got a petrol or diesel engine. I did not think to make any notes as I only went there to enjoy the show for myself.
The majority of this Discovery looks standard, but the axle and suspensions are customised modifications for extreme off-roading, and are not factory standard.
The Range Rover was designed to be an everyday four wheel drive car that could work as both a utility vehicle and a family car, it however moved upmarket and become more of a luxury vehicle.
So the Land Rover Discovery was created to fill the role of an affordable family SUV.
While the Discovery comes in either a 3-Door or a 5-Door model, offering 5 seats for a driver and 4 passengers, the large spacious room in the back makes it possible to add two more seats, thus making it a 7-seater.
Most of the Series I model have an engine size ranging from 2.0 L to 3.9 L, while the Series II could have a 2.5 L diesel or 4.0 L petrol engines.
The Series I models were made between 1989 to 1998, and the Series II were manufactured between 1998 to 2002.
The second generation models are the Discovery 3 and Discovery 4, both have similar looks, but totally different from the first generation.
Why did I take the photograph?
I was not doing any photo-shoots. At that time, I was a full-time single parent, and was taking a break for myself while the ex-wife looks after the kids for a day. As I happen to be a Land Rover owner and driver, I decided to go to this event to enjoy myself, and hope to find anything useful for my own Land Rover Freelander. I bought along my Nikon DSLR simply just to take snapshots, mainly to remember that day, it simply was my change to have a break and unwind.
About the event.
Land Rover Owner, often abbreviated as LRO, is a British monthly magazine aimed for the Land Rover enthusiasts. Sometimes the title is subtitled as Land Rover Owner International. The magazine is published by a company based in Peterborough, United Kingdom, and had been publishing the magazine for over 30 years.
The magazine would host an annual Land Rover show, known as Land Rover Owner International Show followed by the year the show is being hosted. The show is mostly hosted at the East of England Showground on the east outskirts of Peterborough.
The show would feature a Live Action Arena, where various Land Rovers would drive around the arena, while customised and modified Land Rovers would show their off-road capabilities over a rough ground in the middle of the arena. Included in the show are Club Stands, displaying various Land Rovers, which are often members of various Land Rover organisations (For example: South West Land Rover Club, Wales Land Rover Club, Ladies Land Rover Club, etc., in additional to G4 Challenge, Camel Trophy, RNLI, etc.). There would be stalls selling spare parts, merchandises, food and drinks, etc. Plus some funfair and events for the kids.
