Im gonna purchase a DII or a 97+ 4.0 Range Rover, any input. Which is better off-road? Is easier to service? |

They are about equal off road,but think of this-The Range Rover can be VERY expensive to own,air suspension,a/c system,brake system,control units,all expensive parts that go out alot,the disco 2 will be cheaper in this respect and the disco will have much better power than the 4.0 Range Rover.........Brian. |

"...disco will have much better power than the 4.0 Range Rover" Huh? Don't they have the same engine? Just an extra 6hp on the DII. I think the Rangie also has a VC over the DII with the CDL that you have to install the linkage for if your DII is a 1999-early 2001. I would get a 1999-2000 DII if it was me for off road use. That is if my only choice was the DII or Rangie 4.0. |

...or an early 2001 Discovery. We found the exact vehicle we wanted, a 2001 SD with CDL nut and low miles (9k) for an affordable price. Added slightly larger MTR's, and the Aussie motorized CDL actuator, and now away we go.... John F |

Aussie motorized CDL actuator? Never heard of this. Could you elaborate a little or provide a informative link? BW |
