Dilemma:
Heart says 300 TDI manual 3 door.....but EARS say V8  :lol:

but I have just been offered (for money!) an abolutely solid 95 V8 3dr Auto - v nicely kept for £2.2k add £700 for LPG tanks in boot


Will be used for local short runs - will lift etc do arches - greenlane - play & break days

Views?  :?
V8 v 300tdi
Manual v Auto

Ogbyte:
Aren't Diesels supposed to be better for wading, due to V8's electrics not liking water?

probably worth considering if that's something you plan on doing.

I think that wading (except where absolutely necessary!) is now off my list of things to do in a Disco after loosing my last one to a "puddle" at Cowm!

way2deep:
if you don't wanna play in water then the v8 would be my way to go,gearbox wise autos are real nice to drive on and off road .it's catch 22 cos ya got bored of just hills and want to splash too,then ya bored of sluggish power then want a v8..hills and water  a diesel will do both

Jim-Willy:
Buy a TDI, its gods own engine.
