Surely it all depends on how much you wish to use it, if you want comfort and a little more long distance ability, get the disco, if you use the truck for purely off road, keep the 90.....
gone from 200tdi.... to 300tdi... still with loads done to it, in fact, even more than the last truck...LOL!!!

TBH I'd want to come out of the deal with some cash too.  I prefer the RRC TBH, but if it's just for off-road, the 90 is king.

90's are always in demand, disco's are comfier - roomier, and just as easy to spend loads of cash on!!!!
if you can get the disco for a good price then sell the 90..if the guy is after a straight swap - then walk away!!

out of interest what are the specs of the 2 vehicles??

Is that the one that was up for sale at Eastnor 2 years ago for nearly £13k? If it is .. nice to see he's finally realised that Discos depreciate ;) I'd say it's still nearly £1300 too expensive. Toys only count when sold as separates. If I ever sell my Disco....it goes in *bits* ;)

well you seem to have an issue with lights :-# :lol:

Just out of interest, have you driven the Disco yet? Do you struggle with leg room in the 90
