New one = instant loss on purchase price of 30%+ and 50% after 3 years, old one value rising year on year. New one off the road with electronic and other faults, old one reliable electronically and if sorted mechanically too. You re welcome to chuck your money awayI’m saving for the new one.

I know it is very personal, but the new one isn’t done any favours in that colour, the original on the other hand brings back fond memories of mine in that colour

In 60 years, I have never bought a new car with my own cash, had quite a few new company purchases where the loss was mitigated by the tax advantages.

There’s a few on the roads ‘common as’ but they see to be two popular colours grey and black, if I ever buy a Land Rover again it will be green... all Land Rovers should be greenI dint like that blue on the new one.

Still have my disco its now served its purpose but its reliable, only past issues failed water pump and viscous coupling bearings, and importantly no chassis rust and passed the MOT every year.
My 5year Jag XE takes the strain, which will be part x that for something else this year... A Raptor
