The Disco is good value but it will come as a shock to the system after the economy of the A4.
The advantage of the disco of course is that you can work easily on them yourself and parts are readily available from specialists all over the country.
The one you've got in mind sounds like a good buy. Tidy 300tdi's can be upto 2.5k.
The one thing i like about the Disco is that it ages well. We are considering one next year for similiar reasons to you, it would stay stock except for tyres and be used for towing.
how about a jeep cherokee 2.8 diesel auto?
you'll should get a nice one for 5k say 2004-05 - if you get a limited then you usually get full leather trim as well - petrols are cheaper but mega thirsty
also can tow up to 3.5 tons with a diesel auto
avoid the 2.5 diesels as the engine isn't that reliable
how about a nissan terrano i have had a few now & i realy like them & there super relialbe as the 2.7 deisel is the same engine as the black cab & they go forever & they are good value for your money
