The strength of the pound over every other currency on earth isnt helping prices for us here at the moment. Thats why the Freelander sells so well in the UK and EU but doesnt sell here. The exhange rate makes it prohibitively expensive here. Matt

My wife's step-father has a Grand Cherokee 3.0CRD.

Not a bad piece of kit, but generally not put together as well as a Disco3.

I don't know what it's like off-road as his idea of off-roading is parking it on the front lawn.

Yeah, I'd go for a decent pre-loved TDV6 D3. They seem to loose their value as you drive them out of the showroom, just make absolutely sure it hasn't come out of the panel beaters/or been previously pinched (aka: 4corners).
I, for one don't feel insecure about discussing the virtues of other four wheelers. I know mine is without doubt, far superior in every way!.:D

Yair, you're right. I'm an Anglophile.

But to get back on topic, I did consider a Jeep for my wife. The price was right (albeit for the V6 petrol) but, in the end, we went for a Forester as we didn't really need another o9ff-roader.

I read I think in 4wd monthly or one of them the one that just came out this week. LR only sold 113 or 133 D3,s last month. As I have been saying too many times before PRICING, PRICING, PRICING. enough said.

Thats because they have no stock and sales are based on registrations.

Wait till around Feb/Mar when the big shipment arrives!

As they will give an Irish passport to anyone who can claim one Irish grand-parent, I would say the Irish would take anyone who had the price of a passport. Even with dusky complexions, turbans, veils.
