1996 Land Rover Discovery TDi review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing with this one but last two both had head gasket failures at around 100k - simple to change so any one who has a high miler do it now! Saves the cost of new turbo and injectors.
General comments?
Big tough good long haul car, all my farmer mates say it's THE BUSINESS off road. VERY cheap bits (4x4 mags abound with them). Simple to fix (big spanner). Wife loves it. Fantastic tow car, great to travel in the back too.
