RRS is going and having to get 2 cars with the proceeds. Would be interested in people's thoughts as to whether this would just be a money-pit (or should I say, more of a money pit!).

Petrol

I am out of love with my sport and looking for a full fat but definitely would avoid a petrol unless you have loads of spare dosh or plan an lpg conversion

Not sure what your budget is but i looked at a second hand vogue same time as I got my RRS and it was not a patch on the 4.4 TDV8 but they are a lot more money

I would join full fat and ask the guys over there what they think  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

I do very few miles so not too worried by mpg.

The sensible option is go get myself a nice low mileage 530d M Sport for the same money, but it is nowhere near as cool!!!

U can literally get the diesel for a little more than that petrol your lookin at tho Sellers and would prob be cheaper to service each year as u ain't got the spark plugs n stuff to change, jst sumthng to thnk about as I had the same idea in mind also youl get shot of a diesel vogue much easier if u ever did want too, the vogue interiors much nicer than our interior I think seems to b more thought put into it a reckon Java black 2006
