This kinda tempts me but perhaps the carpet colour is an aquired taste....

Not a fan of that shape, interiors really let it down i feel. Next generation is much nicer inside

Depends on how many green shield stamp books you want to cash in, I suppose....

Thanks a lot guys, particulaly Josh, some very useful info there. I was thinking of something with a bit of grunt as well as snow capability, so the Disco or sound interesting.

 

Be careful of them, they are cheap for a reason, they rot very easily 

Sorry Tunnie, which ones rot?

That looks very nice for the money, but a bit too rich for my wallet.

The engines suffer from dropped liners/cracked heads but if well maintained are

All you need is a proper Land Rover (Series any)...
Just don't expect any luxury.....

[Mr Skrunts]

there is only one 4x4 for this weather and it is a toyota landcruiser !!i  sold mine a few months back and it was superb 4.5 all wheel drive .front and rear wheel drive .full leather air con .brilliant motor.

[Steve Brookman]

I've had my 4.6HSE for well over 3 years, I'd thoroughly recommend one!

The only car I would change it for would be a newer shape petrol model.

Yes I have also considered one of those , I know from service experience how rugged they are.

We have had two Classic shaped Range Rovers and Mrs. Loo-knee regrets the day we sold the last one I have not heard the last of it either

There always seems to be something needing to be done on them, changing all the oils is quiet expensive too.
Parts are suprisingly quiet cheap, example an alternator for a Rangey was £50 new 
We went looking for snow in them which was brilliant fun and also an offroading day in the first one 

Pretty sure it is the 4.6 that had problems dropping liners.
Head Gaskets are pretty easy to do to as there is so much room in there, just climb in

A neighbour used to work in the desert somewhere and he claims that Land Rangers etc etc are no match for either Land Rover or Range Rover.

I actually prefer the Classic shape, but Tunnie if you can afford a new Range Rover you must be a Rentboy
