    I spotted THIS unit which is the kind of vehicle that I am after. Just add a roof rack and tent and i will not need the trailer any more.
    If you find a 110 is Ok as well as long as is tdi 300 (or with the 3.9 isuzu )
    What's wrong with the 200tDi?

    The Tdi 200 is a fine engine but for some reason it is hard to get spares, specially a head.
    The Isuzu 3.9 turbo is my favorite engine

    Cracked Chassis

    Hi all
    The only reason they crack are because of worn suspension components. I pull spanners on these vehicles, Ive seen this time after time on them if they drive around on worn bushes etc. Keep all your radius arms tight at every 5k and they will give you long service, my 300 tdi Disco has over 500 000 km on it and most of the suspension components are original from factory.

    cheers Bob

    The Isuzu 110. Solid and as dependable as a rock, coming soon with auto box😊
    The Range Rover L322 4.4.TTDV8 ....probably won't bother with the remap..😈
