Thread: Time for a change

If I kept it I would see it as a waste, wouldnt be used enough.

Would rather get a nice old Rangie that I can tinker with and use during the weekends.
But also one that was low priced enough that if it just sat around for a month or two then I wouldnt worry about it too much.

mate, keep the disco, and buy a rice burner

better the heartache you know than the one you dont, unless you know more than you are letting on [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]

i sold my disco to buy the 2 rice burners and have regretted every dam minute of it.

oh, did i happen to mention.........

DONT buy a new vehicle with a mitsubishi auto gearbox .... their gearboxes suck rocks!

and the fix, disconnect the battery every month..... sheesh!

Well if the price is right then I will sell it but I am not desperate to sell.

If it stays so be it, I will keep using and enjoying it.

As far as what car I am looking for, I have no idea yet :?

Still sorting that out.

Was looking at a ford ute but not sure.

Hey Bigbugga,
When i was in Paraburdoo (1996) i had my nice VS V8 ute and could not go any where up there as the roads would knock the crap out of the ute. I ended up buying a 77 Rangie two door locally for about $3000 and flogged that around for twelve months out in the scrub while i worked there. Then i did not like the high price of fuel up there so looked around for a diesel then ended up putting in the 6.2L V8 chevy diesel. Sounds familar to your situation!!! Trade it on a TDI or TD5 and you will be pleasantlly surprised. The power differance is not that great but the fule difference is unbelievable 8O .

Hi Bigbugga
What are you thinking?????
You cant become a non landyite,NO NO NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How about a not so new not so old falcoon ute on LPG for a daily driver,and the Disco for playtime/comfort trips.
Or sell the Disco,get your ute Then become a SERIES PILOT,we would welcome you to our ranks!!!
Agrojnr just put his Disco on the market as he was missing being a SERIES PILOT so badly he had to go out and buy a Stage1 wagon!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best of luck with your decsion
