I don’t agree that LR have developed & moved forward. Especially since that the Discovery 2 is a far superior 4x4 & is more dependable & even has better resale

I am such a terrible person, but I would park that D 5 in my garage any day.

The ride the luxury the power.

I have not driven one off road but on road it is a monster.

Had drinks with Gasman last Thursday. He has a D4.
Standing for 4 months with two blown Turbo's.
R75k to fix.

I wouldn't take a D4 if you gave it to me...
You obviously did not hear the outcome.
It apparently was a misdiagnosis by his independent workshop and I believe another workshop diagnosed the problem to be the turbo solenoids or valves and not the turbo chargers. That car stood in his yard a long long time waiting to get the big bll together and it turned out to ne cheap as chips.

Nobody in their right mind would sell you let alone give you a Disco 4, way above you, like a Jack Russel chasing a bus, would not know what to do with it once caught

The most awesome car ever and 70% more capable offroad then the Disco 4.
Very capable of climbing Gerts se Klip and wont even have to touch the pedals. ATPC is unbelievable
