when talking about cars, its a case that u need to put things
into perspective. ie, u state u bought a discovery at 65k, and now 100 k later its been fine.
but what about the first 65k? how did the original owner get on?
was it too in the garage for regular warranty work?
u must compare like with like.
me... never buy new, 30 or 40k cars not only because of price,
but most known problems will be sorted by then,and hopefully
the car will run pretty well there onwards...
from a 120k ALFA owner, who has to put up with jibes because he
uses forum sight, where the 156 has plenty of members who would
call a 150k discovery....low mileage...........
as to the rover 400? maybe if there are any owners on here,
they could answer if it is up to the job......
