£7000 Disco
« on: November 01, 2007, 13:10:32 »
I'm thinking of selling my Nissan Navara and getting a disco. I've got about 7 grand to spend and would like to know what to look out for. LPG is going to be high on the list!

Thanks for any help and advice you send my way.

Mainly on road and some towing.  But I'm sure the local lanes will call soon enough!

The defender does sound like a good deal, but I'm likely to be doing some motorway miles mith a trailer so I'm after the creature comforts of a disco!


mmmmm V8! :lol:

What sort of mpg could I expect from that?

If you need to ask you can't afford it  :wink:  :lol:

around 14-15 on petrol and about 12.5 on gas which is roughly a 27mpg cost equivilent.

Just listen to that thou! blisssss!

And i tell you wat a 90 with a nice set of seats in and the rear bulkhead removed is very comfortable! i'm 6f3 and Loads of lef room and the TD5 will sit happily at 70 / 80 no problem! also Resell on a 90 is fair better than a old disco!

I'm still not convinced about a 90. I still think that a disco is the way forward. Just noy at 12mpg  :shock: Guess it will have to be a TD5! Just looked at one this morning but the sales man said its not for sale cos the boss's wife wants to use it! Good sales technique!!!!
