HELP ME MAKE MY MIND UP PLEASE
Onan The Barbarian:
Totally agree, crazymac... maintenance is the key! The trouble is, in these days of rising costs, there are so many people who buy 4x4s and don't maintain them... then sell them on in poor condition. Sadly, these are the ones about which everyone complains that they're unreliable, etc., when, in fact, they just haven't been looked after or treated well! :(
Disco Matt:
One point about the Pajero - I know a chap who had one, clipped a tree and bent his steering. £200 to sort out. For £150 or so I can buy a set of heavy duty steering rods, new steering damper, and a Wizardbilt damper relocation kit for my Disco that will solve pretty much any bent steering problems.
Rich_P:
One of the problems with the Land Rover market is the availability of sub-standard components. Too many people buy the cheapest parts available, with these parts often turning out to be exactly that, cheaply made and fail prematurely.
Bishops Finger:
Jeep XJ or Grand Cherokee....

ive had the pajero ( albeit the 2.5 ) yeas it was comfy, but the cost of parts is crippling and mine was hoplessly unreliable, slow, and really heavy on fuel
the 2.8's suffer with fuel pump seals particualy
i now have a 300tsi disco, its faster, way better mpg ( 30mpg ) has actually been verry reliable, cost of parts are very cheap, and the mods you can do are endless :afro:
so its a 300tdi disco for me over a paj everytime
