offroading.net:
go and get a diesel Grand Vitara, just as good as a Jeep or Disco offroad, really nice to drive and bullet proof. 5k will get a decent 5 door, get a post may 2003 one, the interior is much better

roscoe:
had a v6 Grand Vitara in the past, loved it to bits. I've actually seen a couple at £5k recently but have been having second thoughts re the fuel costs.

a diesel Grand would be excellent but finding one at £5k? that's like looking for hens teeth up here......

offroading.net:
was looking at a v6 for 2800 the other day, cheap as chips for them, diesels can be had, need to look all over tho

roscoe:
the search continues for the perfect 4x4  :roll:

Cherry Bomb:
Disco Jeep? Jeep Disco??

Well I'm gonna say Jeep, but then I'm Right! :lol:

There isn't much in it really (did I just say that!) Discos are more expensive to buy, about twice the price of a similer age and spec Cherokee.  There's nothing in it as far as off road rerformance goes, they're both good trucks in the soft stuff.
On the road the Cherokee is miles better than all but the very latest Discos and it doesn't rely on fancy electronics to do it either.
The Disco wil break more often (but not that much more often) and parts are cheaper when it does.

As for the Jeep.  Go for a 4L petrol, the engines are bullet proof and you don't get much better fuel consumption in the oil burner or the smaller petrol engine. LPG it if you've got the funds.

As for the Jap trucks, I don't know enough about them to comment so I won't. :wink:


Oh and there are more Landies than Jeeps cos THEY ARE MADE HERE! and no other reason. :D
