Hi folks, new on the site but said hello a few weeks ago. my aim is to get a disco by the end of July to replace my company car which goes mid august. Having read and read and read every article i can find i have decided on a budget of up to £8k and am going for a c2002 2.5TDI ES auto.
i know its a general question and will generate a multitude of answers (i hope) from different angles and pov's, but i am looking for any advice you are willing to share about buying a disco. Are there any particular traits or issues i should look out for when buying.
I have read that the self levelling suspension can be problematical, is that a major issue.
Whilst slower and thirstier is the autobox reliable one
Most of my driving will be to work and back on the motorway so i wont be personalising it much but are things like TD5 alives power boosts worth investing in
I will be looking with a vengeance shortly and wouldnt mind dropping a few questions your way as they crop up.
anyway thanks in advance for any advice you can give.
