I'd go Disco/Rangey on that budget.  90/110 will be a dog for 1500 notes, you'll spend another 1500 making it reight........

Disco all day! £1500 won't buy much of a 90 but will get a solid disco. If your lucky, like me it'll come with some off road goodies!

Plus you still have some car like facilities... like a stereo that can be heard!  :lol:

I would prefer a 90 myself but with £1500 as the others have said you are going to find it hard to get a good 90 for that money but you can get an ok disco for that amount. So I voted disco.

get a Disco, you'd be lucky to find a 90 or a 110 for that money, but you'll get a tidy disco for £1500....
A friend of mine recently picked up an 'M' reg 300Tdi for £1600... and my dad just sold his straight 200Tdi for £1400...

take you're time and don't buy the first one you see...

corrosion is your biggest enemy, so look for rust in sills, boot floor, inner wings and body mounts...

once you've got it, you'll be amazed at how good they go off road, a decent set of mud tyres, and you're away...

Just let me think a minute.  Comfort and ability, it must be a disco.  Also you can get loads of kit now and turn it into something awesome.

Looks a nice truck. Modded and ready to go for sensible money.
I would go RRC over Disco as you can buy a nive vogue for £700 and still have money left for mods. Lots around already modded too.
Most Discos at that money will probably need work and have inherant corrosion issues.
(floor, alpine lights)
They are also have steel roofs so are a bit more wobbly than RRCs.
