    got a td5 want a v8 petrol

    Hey Guys
    I am really considering off loading my TD5 Discovery to go with a V8 Petrol.. If there is anyone out there in Vic that could be interested in doing the opposite, pm me.. Mine has quite a few mods (4' suspension lift, 33s, bar work etc etc) which i would take unless the V8 had equivelent..

    Corey..

    NOW If only I was unfortunate enough to have a V8 Disco , I'd be in like a Shot.

    Nothing wrong with a V8 apart from their thirst

    Because I'm not worried about trying to get 10l/100k with a 50foot caravan while towing up through the mountains or whatever they carry on about here, so would rather a V8 throw a supercharger on it chop into a ute and I'm done..

    You can get big V8 utes like that factory, they're called Fords.

    Met someone at a caravan park who had pulled his HUGE caravan (I've lived in smaller units, seriously) up the Atherton Ranges with his Ford F250 and it did his auto gearbox, just out of warranty. $11,000 to replace the gearbox!
