What to buy ?
Mash:
Evnin All...
I'm looking to buy my first landy..After havng a look at a 110 2.5td CSW, and dwelling over the advice given on here I'm gonna leave it alone.
So I'm looking for advice on what I should buy really. It must be a 110 CSW or a 109 series county/safari...
I want to use the landy for everyday use ( I dont do much mileage) plus greenlaning etc..
What is a better engine to have petrol or deisel ? Budget is up to about 2K although I may move a bit..
Opinions no matter what would be appreciated..
rangerider:
to be honest, i think you wont get much 110 for a couple of grand and the daily driving bit tells me to say buy a disco. theres little a 110 will do that a disco wont in a whole heap more comfort, and you will get a more uptodate engine too.
2k will buy a much newer cleaner disco than 109/110. so unless you really need in excess of 7 seats.......
AbyssDJ:
you could pick up a 2.5NA diesel 110 for about £2k if you look around.. might be a bit sheddy, but a good clean and tidy up, maybe a tin of paint and a brush and you're away

I love series landys but I would buy a disco! Its the every day thing, have you driven a series? There are lots of ropey 110s about and 2k wont buy much of one but should get a very smart series.
I would say spend a grand on a series 3 for fun, spend another grand on an old 200tdi disco for everyday use! :D
LandRoger:
I would say Disco every time an early 110 probably wont have power steering -not so good when in the ruts -even worse in traffic parking etc,also the brakes leave a lot to be desired -drums on back :roll:
The Disco on the other hand has the TDI engine lots more power,discs all round , great tow car , and does everything a 110 does but in comfort,
thats my 2ps worth, :wink:
