yes,read good reviews and 2 friends are pleased with theirs

Definitely the way forward. Can't beat them for towing and security, Power, ride comfort and space.

 

Everything in their favour apart from the price tag. I think they have even improved the reliability!

For a BIG car they aren't that bad. I prefer the 90 & 110 in the LR stable. I took my farmer friend to the Malvern Show-ground from his farm in Aylesbury there and back so a round trip of nearly 300 miles. I drove his V6 diesel? disco (manual g box) and was never able to get the mpg meter to go over 25. So not impressed with the fuel usage but the ride was lovely.

I have my old 110 for work and as a multi person carrier but I also have a little Honda civic 1.4 which runs on fresh air. 300 miles on £12. I'd like a newer little run about but can't afford the purchase price though. Still I can run the Honda on second-hand parts.

My old 110 returns 30ish to a gallion.

If you can afford to run a big motor and use it for towing and work and going out fine by me:big grin:
