No, if I buy another Disco it will be a lot better than this one. This is a bit crude after a P38A. It is better than the County I had and drives quite well.

I was gunna keep it but I think it wouldn't be too bad for the daughter. I have few jobs to do on it first, e.g. new timing belt, etc.

So you don't think the seller really was going to buy a Jeep to save money on fuel? :D

So far I've done 800 km on less than 3/4 tank (indicated). It seems stange not refuelling every 2 days (LPG).

I did that about 4 years ago in a Kingswood :eek: (for pics, see upcoming events, Merrijig Rodeo thread). There was nothing hard about it, just lots of corrugations. I think it would depend on the wet season, how much maintenace there has been and how much traffic.
