Ha ha i have never been on the D5 forum on the Disco 4 Jim,
Ah well he is the resident armchair pundit then, sounding like a broken record.
Crikey what a sad individual, nothing better too do with his miserable life- Village Idiot comes too mind
Plus how can you even have the AUDACITY and even justify slating anything that you have never owned, let alone seen or touched or sat inside let alone driven
???
Probably jealous me thinks

Yeah, totally uncalled for. That's for us owners to do!
I notice Disco6.co.uk is live. Will that be the version that fixes the gremlins in the D5? -

Well very true Stuart- i do slag mine with all the issues but would not dare slag anyone elses pride and joy.
Maybe his watch is a fake too
I only purchase quality brands like Rolex and Tag Heuer, not into cheap TAT.
Thats like me commenting on his watch -

A fine bunch of guys on the D5 forum, always helping out with a wealth of knowledge.
So glad i joined up as my brother who is on the D4 more or less forced me too, otherwise i would have remained as a guest -

Errrr, hold on. I will comment on the D5 and give my views despite not owning one. I'm happy to get into conversation with anyone about almost anything and feel no reason why I shouldn't. We are entitled to our opinions whether we own a D5 or not. So I disagree with you guys suggesting otherwise.
I have driven a D5 and I've pulled one or two apart since but I'm still not sold on it. I don't have any leanings towards anything else apart from a FFRR but the wife doesn't like them. Something to do with looking cheap buying a flash car!!
(I love them in an almost wrong way!)
I am not too sold on the rear seats or the towing ability but the split tailgate doesn't matter to me. The looks I'll get used to but they're not "classic" tbh. I love the tech, the ability and the interior style. I have no doubt it'll all get sorted with the update in about 4-5 years. -

I'm confused.
Nobody is suggesting that. -

Fisherman, i was not for 1 second saying that anyone who does not have a D5 cannot comment. Its a free world my friend .
However theres a blatant difference between having a pleasant conversation as oppossed too slagging and constant negativity. If am not sure about anything i keep my gob shut as dont want too come across as an arrogant
.
I was not tarring the majority who dont have a D5, but the AFOREMENTIONED person who seems too be rattling everyones cage.
Never met the guy plus he can crow away too his hearts content as his opinion is irrelevant.
Plus its the ones who dish it out but cant take it that get on my nerves !!!!

I know what you mean about our strange loyalty to LR.
It is difficult to move away!!
With regard to towing, has that been resolved now do you think? -

No offence taken Fisherman
The only other car i would entertain is the Subaru Forester mate for towing.
However its only a 5 seater. Am sure its won tow car a few times for mid sized 4x4 s though.
Half the price of the D5, packed with technology, not too mention 5 years warranty /100,000 miles and were offering free servicing a while back.
Bombproof engines, symmetrical AWD (permanent), plus rally heritage- (none of that mickey mouse 4x2 selectable nonsense).
Never had any problems with any of my ones, plus i had 3 high performance ones which were fault free.
My friends who are farmers have switched too the Forester as told me the Defenders were always breaking down, plus the Forester was cheaper too run and alot more comfortable and cheaper parts. Sadly the Defenders were not made too last he said.
Just a pity LR doesnt had the reliabilty like the Jap brands have, especially for such a Premium brand.
