Gone but not forgotten.....ever!

Well it pains me to say my beloved Disco TD5 has gone, to a point i told my son to take some pictures of her before we drove off in the new car, I just couldnt do it myself, call me a wuss, I know but I didnt realise how attached I had become to her.

Im now in ownership of 3lt Audi Allroad tdi quattro 06 plate, not as good off road i dare say but did I ever take the TD5 to its limit off road, No?.
Pure luxury and bottomless power now and the other point is I have her in doors off me back nagging the Disco was killing our finances.

I will off course watch this site and contribute where I can.

This is by no means Good Bye, but more of a huge thank you for all the help I have had over the years with my Disco.

You'll see the light soon Matt!

I feel the same, lots of electrickery so lots of elecfukuppery in the future, i did try and tell her in doors, we wait and see.

Unfortunately for Land Rover you are likely to get pure reliability from your Audi.

Anyway, enjoy.

I did the same 3 years ago, 05 Passat & it all went pear shaped.
Land rover's for ever from now on, in my house.

You never owned a German car then obviously they go wrong just as often as other cars (probably not as often as a landy though to be honest) they just cost more to fix, and the big hammer don't work as well on them either

Well no, apart from 2 Mercs, 1 Audi, 1 Porche, 1 Golf and 3 Bmw's.

I spent no money on repairs for the Audi, the Porche or the BM's. One Merc blue a head gasket and I think the other had no faults.

Porche ah forgot about them they are generally good (but not as perfect as a lot of people think), but in my experience you can keep all the others

fabulous car, i just hope you dont get unlucky with it.

i am in the car trade and im afraid to say that german material has been producing some eye watering repair bills recently.

obviously most of the time they run faultlessly for a very long time, you just gotta hope and pray!

**** porsche, pretty much every boxster has a rear main bearing seal leak!
