Recently I've taken to the idea of buying an (old-ish) Land Rover Discovery 1999/2000 and wondered what peoples opinions on them are. I have max budget £4500 and ideally would like a 7 seater.
I notice alot with 100,000+ miles on them, 130, 150 etc and some with 200,000+ is this something to look out for? I know there is a stigma that land rovers are very unreliable but does this hold true? Or is the higher milage just a testament to how long these things live for.
Anything worth noting, I have been told a disel is the one to go for but have seen a couple of LPG V8s.
Also, whats the difference between a discovery and a range rover, which should I opt for?
