why the change? you will be cramped in a 90 after being in a disco, you do get used to it after a while though

Jim-Willy · « **Reply #2 on:** October 24, 2005, 21:36:25 »

Is it your only Car? I've voted for a 90 cos i've got one and love it but if you've a family and no other Car they are a tad small and your Wife will hate it as they are too high for lasses to get in without moaning and they don't like the noise.

i got the disco becouse the wife could not drive and the baby had togo inthe car but now she has a car and the new one will be all mine was thinking of a truck cab 90 ??????

voted for a 90
disco's are more costly to fix when you bend them plus 90 is more fun

Keep the disco :)

The 90 truck cab will be no good for a school run :lol:

gecko · « **Reply #6 on:** October 24, 2005, 21:51:52 »

can fit a lot of kids in the back of a truck cab and then put some tarpoling with a rachit strap around the lot hmmmmmmmmmm just picture it in your head :roll:

Jim-Willy · « **Reply #7 on:** October 24, 2005, 21:57:21 »

Why a T/cab? They look good but are awfully impractical (although warm up quicker inside), a Van is more practical.

Seems a shame after the time and money you've spent on it.
Can you not get a truck cab series 3 for play time??
:D

gecko · « **Reply #9 on:** October 24, 2005, 22:04:54 »

thing is jake i want things like pas and the fact i find it hard to fit in to a 90 getting in to a ser 3 i have to have me arm out the door

Get a 90 over a disco anyday for off road.

you'll have more fun and bend less panels in the process!

A truck cab is cool to drive and is well chuckable, but a hardtop is far more practical - your choice

gecko · « **Reply #11 on:** October 24, 2005, 22:06:48 »

its only got to fit me in there so thats why i want a truck cab

Xtremeteam · « **Reply #12 on:** October 24, 2005, 22:19:08 »

i got a 90 van for day to day & its great although a disco would be more refined but i can go places with the 90 discos wont look at,also dont have carpets in the truck to worry about

gecko · « **Reply #13 on:** October 24, 2005, 22:31:44 »

i got to say i think you can get a disco in the same place as a 90 but its what you would to to the disco

Hmmm, not so sure!

You've got to be wanting to do some pretty extreme stuff to really 'use' the 90s advantages over a properly specced Discovery.

Don't get me wrong, I always wanted a 90, but now I am a Discovery convert. I haven't found anywhere that I really want to go that I can't get to in the Discovery.

I like the fact that I can use it all day off road, then get back on the motorway on the way home and fly past 90 & 110 owners in comfort and can hear the radio.

Although I really like the look of a 90 - I'd still rather have my Discovery :D Hence I voted "keep Gecko"

Andy the Landy · « **Reply #16 on:** October 24, 2005, 23:04:44 »

I just looked in your gallery - KEEP GECKO :D

JD LWB · « **Reply #17 on:** October 24, 2005, 23:46:34 »

After how much fun we had over the weekend, I'd say keep him. :D

After all, you've already kitted it out and have a head full of plans for what to do next.

davidlandy · « **Reply #18 on:** October 25, 2005, 10:50:36 »

most time when we go out and there is a disco in the group there is normally always some damage to it, whether it be due to the overhangs or the barrel sides.

To spec up a disco to make it as versatile off road as a 90 you really have to chuck some serious Ã‚Â£s at it.
