Worth buying.....are you able to post the article here ?

Brett....

Just thought I would give you guys the heads up on the latest 4x4 Australia magazine.

There's a good chunk of the mag dedicated to the mighty Discovery.
Some good history including a drive of a G4 D2a and an insanely mint launch edition D1 Td5 200.

??????????????????????

I take it from that the writers didn't know what they were talking about???

"We started our exercise with a fine Discovery 1. Not just any example, either, but the first salable unit: a highly prized 2.5 Tdi 200 diesel from the company's heritage collection that has done only a handful of miles and is in better-than-new condition."

Ah, that is closer to the truth. A 200 Tdi (not Tdi 200) is the correct engine, but this is not a Td5 as you stated originally.

I beg for mercy. I am but a humble D2 owner driving his first Landy!

Not having a go at you. Just trying to work out how incorrect and poorly researched the mag article is...
