well ill stick a quick few pics up. in these pics, we were doing a "scientific" tractor pull with 3 different land rovers. the aim was meant to be the comparision between tyre sizes (235/85 315/75) and seeing the difference in drawbar pull. we then also used the disco (265/75) to see the differnece of weight on the drawbar pull. 
the disco is Mine, the 110 is Langers and the S3 is Discomikeys
These numbers is the drawbar pull to weight of vehicle ratio.

Yeah, Looks like that hilux from Top Gear
Out of interest, What do you pay for insurance on the Disco? I am thinking about getting a Disco, and whilst I pay £800 a year on the 110, They want 3K for a Disco WTF? The NFU do confuse the life out of me sometimes!Erm, Come to a standstill
The 110 is the world's most unreliable vehicle, and the whole time I have had it, I have not had time to work on the Series 3! So I am thinking of selling the 110, Buying a Disco and get the S3 built!

cost me 1600 for the disco when i was 18 with no NCB and just under a year driving experiance, now looking at about 1000/1200 for me being 19 with 1 NCB and 10,000 miles a year.
