I love my LR3, but should I buy a clean low mile Disco II?

You mean not smooth or practical like a D3 (LR3)...
I'm with keninnc on this one, I have a D2 and regularly drive a LR3 and LR4. D2s are super easy to work on and can be a lot of fun, but not nearly as smooth or practical as a D2. Also if you're lazy like me and don't bring a tent camping you can easily sleep inside the car if your under 6ft.

I have both a LR3 and D2.
Keep your LR3 and get a D2.
If you like the size of the LR3, smooth ride and the quiet interior you are not going to like the D2 much after you get over the styling. I love the way the D2 looks inside and out but I'm 6'3" and the D2 is cramped compared to the LR3. However the D2 is great on the trails being smaller and with the solid axels and coils.

I think that the (consensis) message Is BOTH
Personally, I like the look of the D2s much more than the later models. That said, I’ve never driven or ridden in a 3 or 4 so I can’t compare without sone bias. If you’re into upgrades, I think there is more aftermarket stuff available for the D1/2s. I guess you need to ask yourself what you’re looking for. If your D3 is a keeper, keep it. Like someone suggested, consider buying a D2 as well - they can be had very reasonable.

Love the LR3 ~
I get keeping at least one Land Rover, but the LR3 is great. (been great for me ~)
Pending funds, I'd keep the LR3 and go with a range rover classic. Different set of headaches than a D2 but another timeless look that really is even more different than the discos. Plus talk about value increasing....also easier to swap motors away from a rover v8 if you so desired as there are less electronics to deal with.
