LOL nice mate :) All the cars I like are at the oposite end of the country from me :doh:

This is the one I am looking at just dont like the colour. Does it look like a full spec ES? can anyone see anything missing?

checked everywhere...I wonder if this is a bad time to buy a 4x4 with the weather and all. My brother restored camper vans and says its much easier to sell them in spring when the weather gets nice. I'm pretty desperdo if you cant tell. I'll be carless when i get home again which is driving me...

Yeh cheers Pete...I recon that is priced up like that cos it's a minter. My budget is 7500 and he's got that up for 8.5 grand. The millage is ok, it has full history, the interior looks like it has been looked after. I think it's one owner since new as well. For 7.5 grand I'd buy it I recon...

Can I ask for one alst opinion Does that look way way over priced I know its not easy from pics and the description...looks pretty good to me but a bit expensive. Mind the interior is mint

Might be a smart idea actually....for a car 2 years newer I'm seeing prices of 3 grand more. Sure they look really nice but thats a lot of extra money. The facelift 2002-2004 really seem to be in demand which I am supprised about as things are supposed to be tight and I thought I'd be getting a...

What did you pay for a 2000 model? around 5k?

Which colour was it? Yes you mimic all of the pains I been putting myself through. I have started to look at the 2002/2003 models but they are vastly more expensive cocidering they are just a year or two newer than a 2000/2001 model. Is the extra cost justified? I want a V8i ES as I like to...

Gonna aim for 60-80k miles, It will take me years to do the other 20. Also probably not going to bother with LPG. I just dont do the milage.

Nice...two answers I wanted to hear! I seriously concidering it. Going to opt for the Disco. Now trying to find a decent low miler....they aren't easy to find. Most have gone by the time I get a reply from the dealer. I like THIS but I don't wanna pay that much for it.

It's that simple? Cheers

It's almost to the point of putting me off buying one! The 2001 look so much nicer. a) Why did they make the front end of the disco fugly? b) Is there anything that can easily be done to make it look more like the 2001? c) or should I stop crying like a little girl and just buy the bloody thing...

but is it something to be concerned about? I'll be honest there are a couple other V8 Es that have 70-80k miles but they are silver....I dont like the colour :) The one I like has 100k one owner (company owned and apparently driven by a woman) has full service history but 106k miles. Looks the...

What do you think about 100k miles on a 2002 plate with full history? Is that alot for a V8?

So a V8 Auto will be good off road then? I wont be doing many miles around town, it is a car to get me in to the country whether it be shooting, fishing, walking, taking the dog/kids out for walks etc. I recon maximum 4k per year so I can take the fuel hit on petrol. What I am more concerned...

Yes I am getting slowly put off the rangie....seems to me alot more to go wrong. What about automatic versus manual? Is there a case for an Auto in an off road vehical?

I am still looking at my options. I am aiming for a 2001-2002 discovery or maybe a range rover of same year. I was looking at range rovers originally and now am looking at discoveries. I am not sure whether to go V8 or Diesel. I know the TD5 and 2.5 in the range are different and the former...

With reference to a V8 I am looking at would it concern anyone that the Range Rover had had a new gear box? Does this soudngood or bad? There was 100k on the clock. Also what is concidered ok millage for a Diesel and V8 2001/2002 year?

JSF that was a very well thought out reply thanks alot! Goon I am in Libya at the moment but I want to line up a test drive or two soon as I get back so I am doing my research before I get home. I dont want to buy a new toy only to be send back to work for a month and without having enjoyed it :)

Great replies so far...thought posting on the Disco site would offer up some good counter arguements against the P38...so far there is alot of positive thoughts on the Range. I will definately try both but comform is important to me, an Auto is nice for relaxed cruising around as well and I have...
