While we were re-building the isuzu, mum realy needed a car to tow the horse float, a cheap 200tdi disco came up on fleabay and we couldn't resist it.
After being in our disco for a year or so and after the no v8 on your L plates rule came in i decided a tdi disco would be the go for my first car (know one had a hope of talking me into another brand of car:D) Anyway i ended up with a cheap 200tdi disco:D
Will anyone talk me into another brand now?...not a hope in hell:D

CHEERS TIM.
I have a penchant for old British cars (I have a '62 Triumph Vitesse). I bought mine because the ex liked 'em. I was originally looking for an old Mini panelvan, something to leave on the beach while surfing and not worry too much about. They proved to be rare as so I started looking at old Rangies...that morphed into newer ones which in turn became my first Discovery......a '94 V8 auto back in '99. Fell in love with it and started to mod it mildy, sold it at 276k for a 2000 Td5 in 2005 and have never looked back.
Love the shape; the comfort and the heritage behind the name. This vehicle was stock when purchased but now is morphing into a serious tourer as time goes by. I don't think I'll sell it as I don't like the D3's at all and have yet to convince my partner about the merits of a 130/110:(
:twobeers:
4 ton towing and good value for money to off set the MPG...:)
I wanted a different 4wd that was not of Japanese make. I wanted a Discovery so I could modify it and show all those Doctors and farmers what a Disco should look like. I wanted a 4wd that would always have problems until the day it died. I like the colour green.
2 simple reasons.............
1st..... the Toyota has to much road noise and feels like a truck...
2nd... The Volvo was having problems getting over speed humps in the coles car park and a disco is only good for soccer mums, carparks and Dancing
Yep somes up a fair bit of mine too. Also towing a 1000kg camper came into the equation (reason for upgrade from 300Tdi) and the green oval models don't rust in the tropics. :DQuote:

there do seem to be alot of every vehicle on the road that arent used for their initial purpose, but if the owner enjoys the experience, then i say good on them.
I ask my self this question every day, but not in the good way.
It will be for sale very shortly.
