Moving From Texas to Colorado

Moving From Texas to Colorado
Question 1: Should I have any issues taking a Disco II with 110k drove in Texas its lifespan up to Colorado. Not the drive itself but once I am in Colorado due to the High Altitude.
Reason for question: I previously had a Subaru when I lived in Colorado. The Army moved me to Texas so I brought my Subaru with me. The Subaru had 190k on it. It made the drive down there fine which I wasn't worried about, but once I got to Texas I immediately had an idling problem. I spent $800 replacing parts and it still didn't fix it. I drove it the way it was until I sold it.
Question 2: Is it better to purchase a vehicle in the state or same altitude that you will be driving it in?
Reason for question 2: It is cheaper purchase a Disco II in Texas. I think that is the case due to 4x4 is not as important to have there.

Check out Denver CL for asking prices and see if they're higher than in Texas. As has been said, there will be no problems bringing it to the altitude here. Just know that any vehicle will suffer a performance loss when you get up in the 5 digit altitudes - and an underpowered fatty like a Disco will feel it more! Best I can pull is 55mph on the highway when climbing the real steep, high altitude passes.
