Hey guys, I am new here. My name is Aaron from Australia.
I am considering purchasing a series 2 Discovery and am stuck on whether to get a V8 or TD5.
A V8 costs less to purchase, but uses more fuel, whereas the TD5 is the other way round.
I have calculated that to repay the extra $2,000 on purchase it would take 30,000 km of driving.
I just called Davis Performance Landy's and asked him how much a rebuild would cost on each an he said that a V8 would be about $8-9,000 and a diesel would be about the same, but if it needs a head replaced it would be $13-14,000. Does this seem right, I have only heard good things about him, but i was shocked when i heard the price, i was expecting about half that?
