Do I, Don't I
Discohugh:
I have to say that i have a Disco 300 TDi and love it, very capable standard and a few mods even better. I agree with above it is no defender and in my opinion defenders have much more character. My first landy was a 90 csw 2.25 petrol with the engine modified heads,carbs etc and i bloomin loved it but as we had our first child 90s,defenders etc just were not practical at all. So we went for a Disco 300 TDi which again i like for its refinement and ease of use and all round versatility. As for TD5 v TDi i prefer TDi as easier,basic mechanics but my friend has a TD5 and it seems a lot more refined/modern, but he has it in the garage quite often with one thing or the other.Just my thoughts though.
Snooky:
That's one reason for the TDi, price being the other :wink:
I want someting I can work on not a garage, and if I blow it I can replace the engine at not too high a cost either, the TD5 frightens me :lol:
Discohugh:
exactly. :wink:
extreme90:
no need to be frightend by the td5, its a superb engine, ok it relys on electircs to run it but dont let that put you off at all,
they well proven now in the comp scene and alot more people are moving over from the bombproof 200/300tdi's to the td5
if you want a pic of proof that a td5 isnt fased by water like alot of you think i can soon show you a pic to prove you wrong :wink:
i will be going td5 for my next comp 90 aswel, and i love my 200, but still going td5
go discovery mate, its alot more comfier, and less noisy
discoverys for playdays and greenlanes IMO are far superior to a 90 and that comes from me who wont have anything but my 90 :shock:
ive been then and been blown away by a discovery simply cos of its weight and wheelbase
just my opinion, but i would sell up and get a disco, look at suggs, disco-v8 and the others :wink: ask them for their opinion

marjan:
I'm not a Landy man myself but when I was thinking of buying a Disco all my Landy buddies said to avoid the TD5 and go for a good P or R plate TDi 300.
I guess they must know what they are on about as they have all had Disco's for years :?
