Tell the boss to keep the Shogun.

I had one and they are more comfotable, more reliable and a much better build quality than the dreded Disco. Plus as I found out they hold ther value wich the Disco certanly dues not do :!:

HAHAHAHAH something about that green oval brings out the green eyed monster when it gets overtaken by a fronty. I joined the mway today behind someguy and flew past him and he wasn't happy took him 2 mile to catch me, I waited till he was level then floored it again, :lol: :lol: He wasn't happy...


Found out this morning that it was my mate who used to come offroading b4 he got his t reg disco(it's not very offroader friendly apparently) and he wasn't racing me he just wanted to say hello :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I very recently did a trip to saltburn-by-the sea, with a bike trailer in my 2.0 swb sport niagra, I went passed 3 newer disco's on the hard shoulder of the M6 bit , when I got to saltburn-by the sea, i filled up with gas, (as mine is LPG converted) I had done 179 miles, and it cost £14.79 to fill up, best 4x4 by far, is the frontera. It behaved impeccably, with the bike trailer empty, and with the scudmotoped on.
