Oi we don't need you ganging up on us tratterers as well as gypoOften from the Tratter/Disco forums
It hasn't but I'll be buying one
It's a good one though. A black HSE with black leather and all the extras.
Looking forward to a road trip...

Not mentioning any names... but someone else recently bought a Disco and got rid of his trusty Freelander 1. He's now spending £500 per week on it as well as 37 hours labour. And soon he'll realise air bags go pop in the night. Lets hope bukko's dun't go the same way.Oh dear @Hippo another one leaves the flock
I've driven the D4 on and oft road. Nice vehicle but too big for my needs.
Blue ones are betterer.

I sold my D3 because it cost my over £2K on parts in the 18 months I had it.
It was lovely, but was a labour of love and did a good job of draining my bank account.

That is pocket money compared to the depreciation on a D4 over the next 5 or so years.I sold my D3 because it cost my over £2K on parts in the 18 months I had it.

I'm not planning on any residual value when I get rid of the D4, so as long as it does what I need for 4-5 years I'll be happyThat is pocket money compared to the depreciation on a D4 over the next 5 or so years.
And I decided against buying a warranty in favour of keeping the money for maintenance.

As much as I like tinkering with cars, I think a vehicle of such complexity would require a lot more effort to run than most would be prepared to do. As prices drop more peeps on forums will pick them up and knowledge will expand, to assist fixing them. Electronics doesn't bother me. But the sheer amount of jobs to keep on top of to keep an older one running would make life horrible in the cold weather unless yer can get it inside to work on. If yer got the cash to do it then they're nice to have, but too big for my needs.I sold my D3 because it cost my over £2K on parts in the 18 months I had it.

I looked at the D3 and D4, but decided there are just to many problems with them.
That's why I bought a JEEP cos they is super reliable. Well compared to the D3/4 they are.
As I will now be slagged off, I will say it a few more times,JEEEEEEEP, JEEP, JEEPY JEEP, JEEEEEEEEEEEEP
Its lovely to drive btw.
