They don't score many man points though.

I think you could get a sound disco for that sort of money

 some people may dis agree but the 2.8td is the best to go for. the earlier 2.3's were a little slow but as far as i know reliable. they seem to get a little bad press but worked as a tech for vauxhaull a few years ago ,never seen that many in with probs. cheers alan......

Not something for bashing round disued quarries at the weekend.

Being a land rover fan, it pains me to say this!  My missus has a 2.8 tdi frontera that cost us a grand, it sailed through its MOT 2 weeks back with not even an advice note.  I much prefer land rover but I have never had a £1000 landy sail through with no advisories and no work.  

I just checked the MPG on the frontera, we averaged 33mpg over just under 500 miles.  Majority of it was short local stuff, few semi rural 30mile ish trips, one of which was towing a 1000kg caravan!  We had a 2.4 petrol frontera lwb a while back, that gave us a years trouble free motoring even with 124k up it.  Bloody thirsty tho.  

I thought 33mpg was quite respectable for a 2.8tdi lwb 4x4.  


Actually, sod it!  Buy a disco they are much better, I just cant really explain why!  :D
