Hi all, On the hunt for a defender but with prices of different models, and their availability varying greatly, I've not got a particular model in mind. Any of the variants (110 SW, 90SW, 90 or 110 hardtop), have their merits and downsides for me, but I am finding that at the moment 110...

Well I don't mind spending 5K but of course the more I spend the more I expect. My experience with landys has always been that whether you spend a minimum, or blow your budget, and regardless of whether you get the diamond, or the lemon, if it's a land rover, you're going to need to spend money...

Cheers for all your points so far. Obviously this forums likely to be biased in the direction of landys but to be honest, having an L200 would be just a means to an end, and I'd never be happy until I'd had a defender. I'm going to try and steer clear of the NA 2.5 diesels, since my experience...

One other thing, how different is the 2.5TD engine to the 200 or 300tdi. I've driven 2.5NA Land rovers in the army, and they were stupidly slow. I've driven the tdi's in my discos, but not heard much about the 2.5TD?

Hi all, I know these two are very different vehicles indeed, and the Defender wins on off road ability and charm. However I've owned series landys, and disco's before, and I've always felt like they were second best to what I wanted, which is a defender. I need something to put me and my...

Hi all, I'm going to either sell my car or part ex it for a defender. I'm looking around the 4500 mark or less. The car I have is a 2006 BMW 320d, no faults, and in immaculate condition. I'm only looking to change it because I miss landy's too much, and because I don't want to trash a...

Hi all, Some of you will have seen my disco in threads I have posted over the past couple of months (plenty of pics): http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f16/my-disco-camper-when-got-stuck-259100.html http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f16/discovery-1-home-made-sleeping-platform-camper-252670.html...

Hi all, Just a quick note to mention that my disco unfortunately blew a head gasket, and due to further damage (scoring on the cylinder etc.) it needs a new engine. In a rather strange turn of fate, I am now planning to scrap the disco, which is a shame because the chassis is in good nick...

Yeh it's a 300tdi sorry forgot to mention that.

Hi all, Took the disco on a long run today and going down the motorway the engine seemed to noticeably lose power so I put the clutch in, and drifted into the hard shoulder. Without thinking, I switched the engine off while still coasting to a stop in the hard shoulder, and momentarily...

The lane looked pretty much exactly the same when I drove into it, so please don't think all that mud was from me. No doubt I helped to churn it up a bit, but just for the record, the lane was already a complete mess, foolish as it was of me to drive into it. It does also beg the question...

Hi all, I thought I'd share a few pics of my disco and it's mods, and also explain how it spent a night alone last night on a green lane. Mods list is as follows: Steering guard, Spots on bumper, HD springs, and Gas Dampers, Steel rims, with XZLs on front, and Kingpin muds on back, Safari...

Ps the reason I went for HD springs, are that I have removed the 2nd and 3rd row seats and permanently carry around a heavy built in sleeping platform, a jerry can of fuel & one of water, 2 large boxes of tools/ spares, plus god knows what else (cooker and gas, camping chairs, wellies etc)...
