If its not running cost's then stay with your disco and run on petrol so no miss fire, you will also still have a bit more power than a Td5.
TG5's are very good for towing and petrol good for speed and as for the model it has to bet he last of the ES or ES premium :D
 
As its for the wife a 300tdi is a brilliant work horse if your lady likes a bit of comfort go for a good td5es great for towing and with a few mods not much behind the v8 for performance
 
Not sure about the ES though, I run the base model TD5, you still get air-con and the towing ability but with a lot less to go wrong, no ACE, no air springs, no sun-rooves; I guess it depends on your (wifes) priorities? have fun...
