My mates got a disco 3 and hes said servicing is between 250 and 400 quid (not main dealer obviously) which I can live with but 21 mpg?? Is this right? I was hoping for at least 28mpg!

I want a defender but the Mrs says its " too farmery "

Hi all, I'm looking to get a bigger car for the family and must admit I've always liked the discovery, I'm looking at spending a maximum of 15000K so should get an 06. I just wanted to know the average maintenance costs? Any advice on purchasing would be greatly received as well. Thanks...
