I am a new Disco I owner. I have been reading a lot, and doing work on my Disco. My OPINION is that the reason Discos have so many problems is that most original owners have treated them like the average USA made SUV, which is to say to ignore preventative matenance. While this philosophy seems to work OK with American vehicles, it does not work too well with Discos. The Range Rover made vehicles are expensive new, and expensive to repair if you use the dealer, and many things are just not done to keep them up, then a lot of things go wrong at once. But...consider this, most Disco I trucks now have on average over 120k miles on them, many have 150k or more, and are still running, and can be made to run well, and can still have plenty of life left in them, if you do the repair to bring them up to snuff. I think that is a pretty good track record.
