rangy or disco
Range Rover Blues:
Took me a year to find my LSE, I'd given up looking.
What's your budget?
martyn:
as cheap as possible but depends on spec if nothing done to it in the way of offroad bits prob 1300 bearing in mind ill have to spend a good bit specing up but ideal car is diesel auto cooking oil ill be using
UK CRAIG:
It's a lot easier to find a diesel disco then a rangy I reckon, also correct me if I'm wrong guys, but don't all Disco's from '93 onwards use the 24 spline diffs and halfshafts? which are a lot stronger than the 10 spline Rangy ones.
The Disco is a lot more top heavy than a Rangy, take that into account if you're gonna give it a big suspension lift, the driving position in the Rangy is much better for offroading you can really tell where the front corners are easily........
I hope I've helped a little bit, I've had both and I preferred the Rangy, but, it was bobtailed and had a Chevy 5.7lt, a lot more difficult to bobtail a Disco.....
dod51e:
I would go for an RRC. Biased maybe but just remember that the Disco is just a Rangie in disguise!!!!!

'95 model year onwards, just like the RRC in fact. All 300 series should be 24 spline which are marginally less prone to failure because the splines are not cut as deep into the halfshaft and there are more of them. As the halfshafts wear though this causes it's own problems.
