THINKING ABOUT BUYING A RANGE ROVER
90Mike:
hi guys have got a real urge to sell my sj's and get a range rover but could do with some help deciding which one. i have got a wish list that may be a little bit hard to fulfil on a budget of about £1500 to £2000.
1) range rover or discovery?
2) needs to be used as a everyday car for me and my wife and kids.
3) be able to do some green laning with the family?
4) would love a v8 on lpg but i think the insurance would hammer me i am only 25 and live in the city.
5) do lpg underside tanks effect off roading capabilty?
would appreciate any help or your thoughts on my situation.

Ok at your age you may struggle to insure a V8 but you could look for a Disco 2.0 MPi, slow I know but your age counts against you.
TDi, the 200TDi is better than the vm but the 2,5 Vm for the right money is a good enough car, RRC only. Disco diesels are plentyful and if looked after a good lump.
Discovs RRC is a personal choice, I prefer RRC but the Disco has more kid-space in it.
90Mike:
hi mate thanks for you honest opinion will take this into consideration for my next purchase.
Yoshi:
Dont buy a VM!! Yeah they drive nicer than the 200tdi, but they break a hell of alot easier! This is from experience!
200TDi discovery is an awesome vehicle for the money you have to spend, and you can also buy some extras, you will find it is also better on fuel than a v8 on lpg.
90Mike:
hi mate thanks for your comments this is what i have been hearing the past couple of days the 2/300 series would suit me better but what do you think range rover or disco?
