I am dwelling on the question whether to purchase a new Disco with the
TDV6 engine. There seems to be little information on the reliability of
the car. Any experience to share would be appreciated. The model I am

Have a MY01 Freelander TD4 and was surprised to find recently when I
went into the lock box in the floor of the boot at the rear that it had
about half an inch of water in it!
I can't tell where it's coming from - is this a known issue? I'm

I replaced the front springs with the original (blue) springs this
weekend. It makes quite a difference! I took it for a little drive around
the suburbs and then onto the motorway and I must say that I feel a lot
safer than before. It corners predictably and smoothly.

This may be one of those stupid questions. I might not even have a problem

information would be gratefully received.

Our Defender 90TD (19j-engine) started drinking oil like a sailor! The
stuff is here cheaper than Diesel fuel, but I think it is not a good
habit to drink 1l of oil every 200km :(
What we already know: Somehow oil finds its way into the air intake

Of my new toy after a 450 mile journey today.
Firstly, it is very comfy, very comfy indeed, drives like a new car too.
It does not pickup like the RRC LSE though, must be a weight thing, the V8 is a bit 'muted' compared to
the growl from Bob! It doesn't corner as flat either, but ...
