I passed one of these last week on the M20. If anything it was even more camo than this one; the design made it impossible t tell very much at all. Lots of people slowing to stare but there was nothing being given away. LHD example I saw.

Christ, I hope it looks better than that. If you look at the lines of it that seems to be a very lardy, disjointed effort. Think I'll stick with the Disco 4.

I am also starting to look into the Disco4 for family and possibly caravaning duties. The coming generational change is a bit of a worry regarding resale values.
How is the reliability of the 3.0 Diesel with the 8-speed autobox?

I've been waiting on the Discovery '5' for ages.

I just cannot comprehend this kind of mentality. So you are waiting for a car that you have no idea what it looks like, how it drives, it's spec or it's price.

Doesn't that seem a rather daft thing to be doing?

As much as I like the current Disocvery, it's just absolutely ancient underneath now and really is due for replacement.

Wow that truly is an amazingly ignorant, sorry arrogant opinion to have.

As happens so often I was reading this thread, read this comment and though "oh for goodness sake what wilfully obstinate crap is this", look at the username and think "ah, of course".

Had mine for 18 months and done 30k miles in it. It's been faultless. Tows the wobblebox like a dream, you don't even know it's there!
