Hi, I have posted the following this morning, but went offline during the process. I used to own a V8i Disco 1 but traded it in on a Colt V6. I am thinking of purchasing a Disco 2 TD5 with CDL, but have a few concerns regarding diesel vehicles as I am only familiar with petrol models and have read many accounts of blown heads, turbo's, electronics, etc. (only have the greatest admiration for the V8 - no problems, great vehicle)
What advice can you give me on the TD5 please - XS or GS - what do I have to lookout for - what is the major drawback/problems of the TD5? The vehicle will be used ± 80% on road with overland trips to Bots, Zambia, etc.
Regards
Wielie
