Well said!  :clap:

I found it most interesting that the image used was identical to that on Wikipedia. I'm sure they didn't just take the lazy route and steal it... [/sarcasm]

You don't really need to lift them - for the vast majority of laning they'll cope perfectly if you add A/Ts and a detachable towbar.

Don't forget the Maestro lights.  :lol:

I think joe needs to get used to the idea of a LR being made up of parts from the parts bin, considering pretty much all of the Land Rover model range up to the mid-1990s utilised bits from the Leyland/Rover Group parts bin!  :P

One of the below.

Total off road capability, loads of carrying space, a nice colour, open top for summer driving, optional anti theft measures (.50 cal MG).

I have a 4.6hse Range Rover that I tow the caravan with. Bril machine and worth the 20 mpg

What is better on the Discovery than the Toyota Surf / 4Runner?

I am not a fan in general of the 'usual' 4x4 styling, the Discovery, Pajero, Landcruiser, Terrano, Navara etc all fit into this niche - they look too 'fat' to me  :D

The Range Rover has a better look for some reason. The Landy has a good look as well, and I do like the Surf / 4Runner / Hilux styling very much. The Delica looks 'different', I can see why people don't like it, but I think it is better than the 'jelly mold' cookie cutter 4x4 look a lot of vehicles have.

Not that I cannot appreciate good engineering without getting caught up in styline (I like my Legacy after all  :P ), but it would be good to have a vehicle that I liked the look of!
