Poscott Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Went into my local LR dealer today to dream. Came across the new Disco Sport which I believe is the Freebie replacement. Now I know the showroom model was higher spec than standard, but at £36k I wonder if LR are being realistic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tim_roberts Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 New engines are coming next year I believe. Personally I don't like the look of the DS, but I dare say in a year or three I'll have changed my mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigelw Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Totally, do you realize that the Discovery 1 was an equivalent value 25yrs ago when launched!! Admittedly, a lot of dosh for a new car that in my opinion has a lot of stiff competition in that sector for same/better quality but lower price.

wanger Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 tbh £36k for a car these days isn't that expensive un fortunately. i quite likr it. would wait for the better engine and gearbox though. but i'll stick to my company car nd my defender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poscott Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 I'm sticking with my first comment. After looking at the rest of the market, it is overpriced. Yes it may last longer, but does the original purchaser really expect to keep the car till its broken up for parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
