    I’ve been wanting a Disco 1 for so long now, but prices seem to be going up for a decent, non-clapped out on here on the West Coast. Now I’m looking at LR3’s.

      @ You think a D1 would be okay though? (I have a Jeep TJ and don’t mind tinkering on old rigs, within reason.)

      IMO the LR3 is far more reliable than a D1. If comparing two well taken care of examples.
      The LR3 will get better fuel economy, and is much more comfortable. But repairs costs will be higher, and it’s not as easy to work on.
      D1 look so good, parts are cheap, and are very simple to repair.

      @@AddictedMotors Its an acquired taste for sure. I picked up my L322 and dumped $7k into deferred maintenance. Still have to do the transfer case but Its a rust free Blue/ Blue 5.0SC which was exactly the color combo I was looking for. Only issue is some of the cameras go blue every so often. Not enough to prompt me to remove the seat and replace the camera module. Other than that, I like it more than the 405 which the wife has taken over. The Softdash is fully restored so it only goes to the grocery store.....and parked in the nosebleed section.

    Sold my SC L322 a few years ago. Got a little too big for me, parts are way more expensive than other LR models, and I had gotten the L322 out of my system after 5 years of ownership. Currently own a Series 2a, an LR4 5.0 V8 and just picked up an 04 D2! The Freelander never appealed to me so I disagree with you on it defining an enthusiast. Rovers are addictive!

    Can't lie I'm a glutton for punishment with these things lol. Looking for my 3rd one hopefully a mid 2000s L322 with the 5.0 if i can find one at auction that's not mechanically damaged lol🤦🏾‍♂️

      I'd love a 5.0 but how do you deal with the timing chain issues? Do you look for service history showing the improved guides have been installed?
