Hi all,
I have recently sold my boys toy being a 1993 Suzuki SJ413 Samurai softop. Sad to see it go as it was fun and went anywhere but want something a bit more comfortable.
I have decided to treat myself to a Disco1 V8. A big step up from the weak SJ but why not!
I have seen a few within my price range of £1500 on an M Reg, however the majority seem to be automatic. I think my preference is manual but could someone let me know if an automatic is ok for a bit of off roading/green laneing etc? I read in this months landrover monthly that auto does have its advantages but it didn't say anymore than that. If someone could elaborate on that for me that would be good.
I have had a look around the forums but couldn't find anything that directly answered this question.
Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers
James
