Title: Which land rover would you buy?
Post by: spy on February 11, 2007, 22:19:53: I will have about Ã‚Â£1500 (tops) within a few weeks to buy a replacement land rover. What would you buy? If its diesel it must be turbo, if its v8 it must be lpg. So I think the choices are, another tdi disco (maybe an old 300tdi?) a v8 range rover or a very old 110. How bad is the 2.5td defender engine?

Must have at least 3 seats, pref 5 with belts. For offroad use and some road use but not needed as a main car, ie dont have to commute in it or anything.

So come on, what would you buy?

Hmm decisions!

Post by: spy on February 11, 2007, 23:42:46: Its not actually gone yet but its on the way. It needs a few bits doing and I fancy a change. Seems daft to spend time and money fixing it to get rid when I can just get rid as is.

As for the v8 burble, I think I am getting closer to deciding it has to be a v8 range rover on gas.

That's what's so great about them. Not many things can make you hate them yet love them at the same time. :lol:
