    What MPG can you realistically get from a Landy/Disco?

    TD5, 30mpg, trying not to rev her over 2k and using 1st 3rd 5th instead of 1,2,3,4,5. but this goes out of the window when a pajero is along side me at the lights probably down to about 10mpg :D

    Insurance!

    I'd sell the disco and get an old series 2 or 2a, drop a nice cammed up V8 in her, put it on classic insurance and have some fun for a few years till the NCB builds up :D.
