Are you buying a diesel or a petrol Disco 1? Is it an auto or manual. I have found with the Disco they are a brilliant vehicle BUT you have to be a proactive owner. If you want to buy a 4x4 and don't mind that it is uncomfortable and lacks character but is very reliable and causes minimal problems buy a Toyota Lancruiser or Nissan Patrol. I have run Landrover Disco's for several years and still find them the most comfortable and capable 4x4 the down side is they do take a fair degree of owner input. Take a bit of time to learn about them and you start to love them(well some of the time).
