After 4 years with FL2's I've finally gone completely mad and ordered up a Disco. A friend at work asked me if I'd tried an X5 first. What do you reckon I should have said?!

The FL2's have been brilliant, but I've wanted a Disco for years! It's a huge commitment, here's hoping I've done the right thing!!

X5 is good if you are an underworld boss or own a scrap metal yard. :D

Very comfy, unless it is snowing then it is just terrifying.
 
Problem is, three of my colleagues drive BMW's, one's just changed his Merc for a Golf, another has an Audi, while only one has any taste and has a last generation RRS and a Jaguar XF.

BMW's are my pet hate! ;)

My choice was easy. I either kept the Freely, or got a Disco. Nothing else got a look in!

I offered to tow a RRS out of the snow and uphill last year, but the owner declined, if I had high speed-tyres fitted I would have been stuck also. :lalala:
 
Dealer's just told me that it's likely to be with them for 23/9/15, possibly earlier. They'll want to get it out of the door, registered and paid for ASAP and I really want to get my hands on it now! Really, really want to get my hands on it now! :D

I test drove an X5 and bought a Discovery.

Similar price

Discovery is a mch more interesting vehicle, the X5 is a white goods car
 
Only pretty basic photos yet, but.....

(I had the D I S C O V E R Y lettering taken off, really not keen on it; LAND ROVER going back on as it should be!)

Very nice.
The last one of those I had a good look at was parked in the courtyard approach to the Marriot Hotel by Westminster Bridge.

The guy (of foreign descent, one of his wives was wearing a bandit's mask) who had it seemed well chuffed with it and told me he'd just hired it that day. I did feel a bit smug when I said "Mine is just a Disco 2, but at least I own it".
 
New D4 looks Very nice, love the colour, not keen on 'Discovery' lettering either TBH, good choice with getting LR put on it.:cool:

Your old FL2 looks very nice too.

Enjoy the D4. :)
