I have found a Discovery I like It is a 1996 P Tdi but was just looking at how much it is going to cost me to keep. Is it going to cost more than children? I.e. will it have cost me the price of a sports car before they leave home and will that sports car be a converted 2CV or an Aston Martin?
For e.g. what cost would I expect an average service to be, how much are standard tyres, not ultra thin ones over large alloys. How much does it cost to replace the exhaust as ALL my cars have lost their exhausts in the first three months, It seams to be some kind of family curse. Should I be ultra paranoid about blowing head gaskets with a Discovery. I will be servicing the vehicle at my local garage as I have come to trust them and not the Land Rover dealer but I would like guestimates from both dealer and independent. Pound sterling please I'm from North Yorkshire.
