Considering S1 Disco V8.... Problems?
Posted: Sun Mar 27, 2016 11:56 am
Hey guys, since the demise of my Terrano (fuel pump possibly) the the cost vs benefit of throwing more money at it no longer makes sense.
Cue thought process of jumping ships to the dark side
Always loved the V8 Discos, and with S1 models being ludicrously cheap these days it's hard not to consider them.
I'd look for a lower km V8, I'm not worried about fuel as I already drive a V8 and the Terrano used 16-17L/100km around town. I like them because they are relatively simple and should be easy to repair out bush.
Are the Auto's reliable? (Manuals are hard to find in Aus)
Plan is for a touring wagon: 2" lift, 32's, bar, winch, etc.
Other niggles?
Keen to hear your thoughts.
