I remember buying my Disco 2 (TD5) from new. Some of my mates were ridiculing my choice. One guy purchased a Subaru Forrester at the same time as I bought the Disco...his reason was that the Subaru's were supposedly more reliable (according to JDPower). I still have my Disco, and it's been great. The Subaru had 3 gearboxes before the guy sold it! You just don't know. Buy a Disco3, treat it well and I'm sure it'll be fine...
Thanks Martin, funnily enough the subaru forrester was on my shortlist, no diesel though but that 0-60 time is unreal. Also on the list was the freelander, toureg and landcruiser. I could only afford the 2.5 toureg which apparently struggles with its own bodyweight never mind the caravan, test drove the landcruiser and preferred the land rovers.
