Hello all, I've owned a Disco II for about 6 years and had all the joys of LR ownership such as doing head gaskets, replacing radiators, constantly fixing coolant leaks. It's been so much fun that I am going to look at a D1 tomorrow. Since I'm going to look at it on short notice, can anyone give me a quick rundown on whether or not D1 have the same issues as D2s? Propshafts, head gaskets, lousy cooling system, etc?

 

Will have same hg issues. Driveshaft is not same style, but still needs grease.
Cooling system is more robust, use a 180f stat, rad can be rodded out. No amigos. Simpler to work on, leaks just as good.

head gaskets, radiator, depending on your location rust, rust and more rust under carpets and door jambs lol, window regulators, rear windows inop, cruise inop, leakin and inop sun roofs, stuck cdl shifter

probly a lot of the same things as the disco 2

 

Thanks! Exactly what I was looking for.

 

If your still going to buy it after all of the issues listed above....your as sick as I am. Hope it works out.
