Maybe now our Landies might become meccano sets again.

Maybe now our Landies might become meccano sets again.

That would be good, but even so, in my contry, land rovers and their mechanical parts will remain expensive...

Maybe they will get rid of the Discovery 3 and bring the facelifted Discovery 2 back.:hmm:

[XabbaRus]

Discovery 3 is superior to the Disco 2 in all respects including looks.

[Penelope_Grey]

In all respects?

No.

[d@rk51d3]

Put the front vents back into the Defender, I say.:yep:

[XabbaRus]

Why do you think so Penelope?
My dad has one, and had a Disco 2, Disco 3 handles better, better off-road IMO looks better, interior better, engine a leap forward. Would never go back to a Disco 2.

[FIREWALL]

Are they still built in the UK ??? :-?

[d@rk51d3]

IMHO, the Discovery3 is one fugly mother.
But my old man loves it.


I still prefer my 1974, 2 door Rangie.:up:

........or even old series units.

[XabbaRus]

They are still made in the UK.

Disco 3 looks mean and is an improvement on the Disco 2, I can't see how that one can be said to be better looking.

Sure is a good car/tank/no you're going to cut me up mofo.
