Does anyone on here know of this vehicle......??
http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-ca ... 057472.htmI'm after a new truck.....This seems to have been fitted out OK.
What are these Disco's really like?
What are the weaknesses and what should I look at in particular on them if looking at buying something like this?
Cheers

the aftermarket gear on it would probably cost you almost the purchase price of that vehicle. Have the motor and suspension thoroughly checked pre purchase. take a punt on the trans/transfer case. Just fix any other issues as they come up. You will soon see if it has done many deep water crossings.

Usual warnings apply, but $4500 is a good price for Disco of that age and with a 300Tdi. The extras are better.
Discos are good off road. All vehicles have weaknesses. You pays your money and you makes your choices.
Get AA to do a thorough prepurchase inspection.
