There is a mini fridge in the front between the front seats.
My car is so reliable I almost never have trouble with it I always get the oil changed. It has a mini refrigerator in between the front seats. It has the ability to go in the snow. It has three rows of seats. It has three sunroofs. Only one opens but it is well lit. I love my car.

Land Rover LR3 after 12 years
I really haven't had any problems with my car. Just normal maintenance. The car is very reliable and roomy. It's great for our large family. We can all ride together since the LR3 seats 7. I like the sun roofs and the leather interior. The interior is worn but still in great shape.

The only car I'll ever own!
I am a huge fan of land rovers. I have owned three before this one, and I plan to always drive one. My husband owns an Audi and I would still much rather drive the land rover. I have close to 110k miles on it and have not had any major issues. The only problems I have had are some electrical. Sometimes the memory seats will not work, the mirrors will not adjust, and maintenance lights randomly light up, even when there is no issue. Gas mileage really sucks and it is expensive to fill.

2008 Land Rover LR3 review
I have not had any mechanical issues with my LR3. The only problem I feel is that it is more of a 'truck' than the Range Rover HSE. It is not as comfortable, and does not drive as smoothly as the HSE. However, it is higher quality than any other SUV's I have seen or driven. Even when shutting the doors you can feel how solid the vehicle is.

To many Little Problems
This car always has its Check Engine light on. And its always more than $500 to fix. I have owned three land Rovers (others from the 90's) and this is the only one that has ever left me stranded and it has done that multiple times. Full Dealer service record in hand save your money get a Tahoe or a Grand Cherokee.
