Which discovery is best?

muddyflaps · Feb 28, 2013

Hi Folks

New to site so I would like to introduce myself tagged onto a question. I am a 4x4 nut but don't actually own one and I continue to feel incomplete without owning one so I have decided to get rid of the 49 MPG car and get a discovery rather than a landcruiser or defender. Thing is, which one? I have been advised the Disco 1 is the best option - good mileage, all round spring suspension, fair MPG and easy to maintain.
Mainly though I would like to ask how much should I be paying for a decent example?

Cheers

Paul

if i had to have a disco it would have to be a disco 4 fresh out of the showroom with warranty.

but what tyres would you have on it???

The more you pay the better the Disco.
I have a 300TDI, very good example, needs a few parts to complete. You can have it for £5000 ono

Of if your mine isn't what your after, check out completed listings on eBay and read the 10000 threads on here about common problems (key word to search to bring those threads up is RUST).

Happy hunting.

If you get what you pay for, then this must be the best huh?

Am I gonna get a straight answer or what?

For a 97 disc0 you wouldn't pay 5K surely?
