Hi all, if you had up to £11000 to spend on a Landy, which out of the three would you get?
My head tells me td5 Disco 2 as they are a better all round vehicle for 2 adults and 2 children for road use and not far off what a Defender could tackle. I could also get a top spec, low ish mileage with money to spare.
My heart tells me I should get a defender 110 as I wont lose that much money if at all if I buy the right one. is more capable off road, but not as good as the discovery on road . The 300TDi might be the better bet as you don't seem to get stung as bad with the bloody car tax.
The devil in me said I should get a tdv6 Disco 3, registered before 23rd March 2006 (car tax again). Find one that has full service history and has had the belts changed and the auto box flushed possibly electronic parking brake module also done and I should be okay.
I will hopefully go travelling through france, spain etc with the family, and morocco one day with the lads towing a trailer with off road bikes and gear etc.
Fuel consumption wise, I don't think there is a lot in it.
What do you reckon?
