Nope the one with the very useful 3.0 turbo Awesome engine. Impressively powerful and extremely reliable. I transplanted one into a Disco I last year for a mate of mine and the end result is rather good. |

The other 4x4 makers such as toyota and Isuzu and so forth have also produced things with major problems, and in many cases (especially in the UK) the parts and repairs cost a lot more. and the comment about this being a fan group is a lot more valid than your gratuitous abuse. cross-posting is never that good an idea at the best of times. -- Austin Shackles. www.ddol-las.net my opinions are just that Travel The Galaxy!
