Tell you what Pux, thats a nice Disco you've got there, if you were to swap it for a 90, it should be something alot better than that one!!

It's "worth" whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Landy's are a bit like houses in that respect, often bought with the heart, not the head.
They are also a bit house shaped, now I come to think about it.  :wink:

Just to throw another view into the mix -

I had a C reg 110 which I wound up cutting up & selling as spares.  I could not shift it at £1000 - but got over 3k for the spares!

When we cut it up, although there was a bit of rot in the rear x-member, the rest of the chassis was like new and so was the bulkhead.

Another D reg land rover with a similar history but treated with more love(both ex electricity board) I've seen is rotten all over - the bulkhead has almost vanished!.  A few people have said that something changed, probably the grade / manufacturer of the steel between C & D.

If you look around, you can see more A,B & C's with sound bulkheads than D or E's

This one was over-priced IMHO - but If I were buying another 90, I would seriously consider a C reg or older.  I now have a G and an L reg.  Despite gallons of wax-oil injected into the bulkhead, neither is in as good nick as the 110's bulkhead.
