I'd do for the disco. Look at the price of the defenders out there, $17000....
you can have a disco for a quarter the price and then spend a little on upgrades. You get the comfort and all the bits just a poop load cheaper...
As has been said previously, they all have the same workings underneath.

Definately go for the discovery. I look at defender owners as those who chose to spend WAAAY too much for a truck. I bought my Disco for $700 US dollars. After alot of maintenance and a few upgrades I am still under $2500 with 4 BFG MT KM2 tires costing me $1000 US. I have been offroad 7 times in the past 7 months. I love it!
I could not be happier!

Pros and Cons for Both. If your in Auckland come along to a Land Rover club meeting 1st Monday of each month. Heaps of people to talk about it there.
I personally run a Series 1 Disco, 2" OME Lift and 32" BFG tyres and dual ARB Lockers plus winch and a few other mods. Its capable enough for now.
Some in the club run defenders, range rovers, discos, series etc. Other Land Rover clubs through out NZ also.
Mine was off trademe about April last year for NZ$8000 174,000Km 300TDi Auto.

Wish they would have had that option here.......
What kind of mileage do you get?
