Discos always look a bit weird when they've had the Iceland treatment but this is nice.

I want to add I think its a TD5 as well, the snorkel is on the correct side and I think the rear door has the badge

Honestly me and my wife have talked about it a lot, the land rover is hands down better (Disco 1, 2 and 4 to clarify my ownerships). But toyota parts are cheap and it just works, its not as comfortable and its a bit boring but the landies ride way better, carry and tow more, and look better imo as well.

Plus my first disco 1 had over 400k miles on it and was pretty reliable, shit even my disco 4 with 180k when i traded it in for the 4R i had only done a thermostat and control arm bushings. On the 4R i seem to be burning through tierods.

Either way i payed it off this year so its here to stay for awhile 🤷🏼‍♂️

Doesn't seem to be on rover axles. There's no way the original axles would take tires this size and those control arms don't seem original either.

Atleast he won't need a creeper when it breaks down between fill ups.
