pux:
im in the same boat as you and have been thinking of a TD5 Discovery :shock:

ben_haynes:
Vauxhall Frontera / Monteray + Isuzu Trooper 3.1 TD great engine, very reliable, not heard of engine problems, 2.5 TD has a few engine problems
Mitsubishi Pajero / Shogun 2.5 TD + 2.8 TD Strong and Reliable, Suffer Heads Cracking on higher Mileage
Toyota Land Cruiser TD seem reliable, bit heavier so fuel consumption is a bit higher (not had much to do on them)
Ford Maveric + Nissan Terrano, TD is as reliable as a Transit (same Engine)

Jim-Willy:
My 90 is very reliable.....  only failures it has had have been wear and tear and lack of maintenance after serious offroading.  11000 miles last year it only had 2 wheel bearings, kingpin, a prop u/j and a vac pump.  All probably attributable to my addiction to deep wading.

mentalmoshio sophs V8i:
mk1 pajero had it 3 months cracked axle and knacked engine 2000  grand in bills  :doh: :doh:  :sad: vauxhall seems to be the best for on and on with out anything done

oh a poll is at the top tabs at each section i.e discovery / range rover under new poll tab
