I bought my 97 SD last year in Florida. It was sitting for nearly 5 years. Had 117.xxx miles. Now has 127.xxx miles and located in MO. Paid $1700 but have spent 3 times that for miscellaneous repairs. Wouldn't feel comfortable driving anything else. And there are just a handful of rovers where I live so always getting looks or questions. Love the headroom and cargo space. Luckily gas is inexpensive here. Minus the small fluid leaks I have no complaints. Would never sell.

Bought new and initially had loads of problems . . . most electrical related (window motors-replaced 5, only 4 windows!!; replace front and rear sun roof motors twice each.) Warrenty covered everything but the hassle! Dealer has been great! Very dependable for last three years or so.

The only issues I have are with Land Rover dealers and the beer holder. I have ordered parts and purchased parts from my local dealer. I constantly get attitude and no call backs. I have resorted to buying my parts online.
A few Problems

If you just have to get a Land Rover then this is probably the one to get, but expect to have problems with parts, and expect them to kill the wallet. I have had the entire brake system redone to the tune of $1300 and I still need a sensor in one of the brakes which is a tiddy $250. Most Land Rover Machanics are out for the money and know you will pay it. The Disco is though, and a very rugged car, but keeping it running is the killer.

my land rover has not had many problems. This is a great off-road vehicle. i have treaded through about 2 and a half feet of water with ease. I also enjoy the differintial lockers. These really help you climb steep slopes. I wouldnt recomend the vehicle if you dont go off-road alot or use the 4wd system very often.
