do u guys think im asking to much
Jim-Willy:
If i wanted a Disco thats the one i'd buy. I'd pull the auction and try again February.
chuggaman:
thinking laterally and being a disco owner
and i wanted to get more into competetive events
would i try to sell my modded disco to get a 90
more importantly would i get my money back on what i spent
are 90s more capable than my disco
how much would i need to spend to buy and prep a 90 for events
how much would i spend to prep my disco further for these events
mmmmmmmmmmm
ive pondered on this for the last day
if i was in my car or more importantly in yours
i would carry on with the disco

Depends what sort of events you are talking about. If it is UK challenge stuff, then I still believe the 90 is a better platform.
It has a narrower body, better approach and departure angles, better breakover, tighter turning circle. Tyre choice is greater due to fewer bodywork complications...
Yes, yes... I know you *can* modify a Disco to achieve comparable figures to a 90... but IMHO, the 90 is a better starting point for that type of event.
Now... if you are talking about racing.... then I'd choose a Disco. Well balanced in the air, 100" wheelbase will give reasonable stability, plenty of scope for suspension to cope, etc. etc.
International Challenges... well... jury is still out on that. Range Rover & even 110 get a look in, depending on the actual event.
And that's before you even start to look at non-LR vehicles !
