English Heritage sticker also means that the nearest it's ever been to "off road" is the grass overspill car park at Chatsworth House.
Next stop for that is the scrap yard!
It can be quite steep in parts :-)
They had to pay though, Chatsworth is still privately owned 🙂
near me!
It’s nice to see a car brand not yet featured on this channel 😂😂😂
Hahaha exactly
i bought a cheap Ssangyong isn't something we will ever see i bet @@HighPeakAutos
@@HighPeakAutosShould I buy a Velar? Strangely missing from this otherwise excellent channel.
@@jacinaboxtoys8795Hiya, what engine are you thinking of getting?
@@jacinaboxtoys8795there was one on here a while back. He sold it to his friend who runs the Transformation channel business…. Dan? I think
It’s actually very strange seeing you in a nine year old car that looks brand new and only cost about 30 pence to fettle in relation to the sometimes hideous costs you incur with some of the piles of scrap you end up with…so in this respect a very satisfying and calming presentation to watch 😁
I remember the press really slating that 2.2 engine for being too agricultural and saying its out of date needs a more competitive one. That one was the ingenium engine which was mostly praised at the time. Oh the irony😂
Don't remind him the 2.2 is a PSA unit :O
@khalidacosta7133 lol. I thought it was Ford. PSA do have a good reputation for diesel engines though. The electrics used to fall apart but the engines were tough.
@@paultasker7788 Yep, people look at me weird because I bought a French car for reliability reasons. PSA was best to be avoided between 2000-2006. Strange setup where a VAN-CAN bus translator was used causing lots of issues. After 2005, it was full can bus, after 2008, there are no more electrical issues. I've had zero problems other than an alternator failing at 230k.
My dad had the evoque 2.0 in genius engine. Beautiful car, however it was riddled with electrical faults. Spent more time in the garage than it did with him. Finally got rid of it when it locked itself in limp mode
Even Matt recommended the 2017 discovery sport, with it's more refined and smoother engine over the agricultural 2.2 original engine, it was 4 years ago so he's probably forgot .
My mum had a 'reliable' Nissan Qashqai which had endless faults and problems. She got rid of it and went for an 'unreliable' Discovery Sport - the facelift version though - everyone told her she'd have endless problems with it but it's been faultless for the past 3 years, despite the Ingenium engine.
My next door neighbour bought a 64 reg Nissan Qashqai when it was new, and had numerous issues, one of which was the alarm going off at random times.....He kept it for 120k miles or so, then chopped it in for a new one....
Small wheels and high profile tyres mean smoother ride and less prone to pothole damage. You’re right the Sport looks really good, the full size Disco looks a bit of a blob compared to it . Great video 😅
Thanks for the video - I’ve owned an Ingenium Disco Sport HSE from new for 7 years and it has been a real workhorse and totally reliable. The key is keeping it serviced regularly at 10k miles not the LR scheduled 20k. I’m planning on keeping it for a long time as it does everything I want it to do. The advantage of the 2lt over the 2.2lt is that it is Euro 6 compliant.
Just bought a 2015 Discovery sport hse luxury. 41k miles 2.2 engine. Love it. We had the freelander 2 loved it. Had it 3 year. The most reliable landrover I have ever owned. 😊
Hi, how is the reliability on the discovery sport? How is the engine and how is the handling? Looking to buy discovery sport 2017 long term. Thanks
@@hz7868I wouldn’t touch especially if it’s the 2.2 that Range Rover developed if insistent on buying service the car every 8,500 miles max!. These engines are bad and need very good on time oil changes to survive to the 100k mark
@@kbrar5957Nonsense. Lots of these 2.2s with 300k kms
@@kbrar5957 i think you mean the 2.0.
I never thought twice about owning a Disco Sport, but watching this video you make it look really appealing. Great example too. 👌
Just sold my 2015 2.2 SD4 HSE Lux - apart from one door catch, courtesy of an impatient, heavy-handed customer, it didnt miss a beat in 2.5 yrs and 30k miles.
Drove well for an SUV, very comfortable on long run, and got just shy of 50mpg at motorway speed.
Even thought about calling Matt when I was gearing up to sell it! 😄
wish land rovers were made by toyota ... i love them but i cannot afford to take care of them breaking every other month
One of the great tragedies in automotive history was the sale of Rover Group to BMW rather than Honda. The Nazi Staff car producers asset stripped Rover. Whereas had a Honda / Rover merger happened the mid range SUVs would have had Land Rover style and cachet with Honda reliability.
@@SleepyGarfield73bmw drastically improved them from what they were. Tata doesn’t seem to have worsened them, either. Under developed maybe, but life as a car enthusiast would be boring if everything were perfect.
@@bck0001 BMW starved Rover of investment, failed to update any of the cars, kept the new Mini which was almost fully developed and copied all the Land Rover 4x4 systems before selling that onto Ford. It was a straight forward asset strip, done by a company which has lower moral standards than an alley cat.
They are called Toyota Land Cruiser
@@SleepyGarfield73 I think youll find the preferred staff cars were Mercedes. BMW made some cracking engines though which powered the Fw190, one of the best fighter planes ever built. But I take your point, Honda or Toyota would have been better in the long run.😂
I’m into my sixth year of ownership of my Disco Sport with the Ingenium engine. It has performed flawlessly so far. I am aware of the fragility of this engine so make sure it serviced at shorter intervals than LR recommend. I had the LR2 before this which was also a great car but this one is far more refined.
Is yours petrol or diesel
Yup, it is short journeys and too long in between oil changes which is killing the Ingeniums...
@@hughmarcus1 it is a diesel
@@handycrowdagreed with you there some owners don't give them a good run on a motorway about twice a month to get dpf and engine hot. I always do and use shell v power and service every year using recommended oil. I think this helps
I bought a low mileage 2019 se tech love it having traded in a freelander 2. I covered 95k miles no problems at all. It had genuine 32k on clock when I bought it. Total mileage when traded 127k. Only problem I had was crankshaft position sensor £ 125 to fit new one 😊. Discovery sport is beautiful they are good
Literally just picked up my wife’s Evoque HSE Dynamic Lux today from the garage.
It’s a 2018 Diesel & it’s only done 40k & they’ve just replaced blown turbo, knackered timing chain, cracked thermostat housing & thermostat & had 4 goes at re-sealing the timing case due to leakage.
It’s got FSH & had interim oil changes.
Can’t even sell it as they’re worthless - cheers JLR 🙄
Bloody heck, was it done under warranty? I'd hate to think what that lot would cost.
Ingenium engines are amazing, think they're worse than the TDV6/SDV6 engines with that crankshaft issue
Piles steaming 💩
You would be better off setting fire to it😜
@@paulbaddiley7326 He can't afford to buy any matches now!
OMG. This channel just went full circle for me! I first found the channel when I was looking for a Disco Sport, about four years ago, and have been watching since.
I bought a 2.2 Disco Sport SE Tech SD4 manual in identical spec. Even has the same OEM towbar. Land Rover pre-registered a load of these in this spec as it was the launch colour and many of them were demonstrators. As it's half way to having a black pack with the mirrors, tailgate trim etc. I decided to complete the look with the additional black pack items and a set of black 20" OEM Aerovipers shod with a fresh set of Pirelli Scorpions. Basically looks like the HSE black pack spec. (the halogens are the only giveaway - and no, I haven't taken the SE SD4 badge off!)
I usually keep cars for three years, but I love this thing so much, I'm keeping it for the forseeable, it's been faultless.
...those headlight washers are blanks by the way :)
What a lovely Discovery. This isn't what we come to your channel for! :) Great video - hope the car sells quickly for you :)
Gulp, 2016 Disco Sport with 125,000 moon miles on the Ingenium 2.0 diesel. Hasn’t missed a beat yet and I use it everyday . Hope I haven’t just jinxed it 😮😮
That's the secret, using it every day...
I see ton's of 'low mileage' Ingeniums which have been used in place of bicycles, and they've never been up to temp...
And they wonder why the system is repeatedly trying to clean the damn DPF and flooding the oil with diesel till it's climbing up the dipstick tube!
I have a 2016 sport hse auto, timing chain had been done when I purchased it which was a slight relief. Had it for just over 2 years and it’s never ever missed a beat, I’m scared to think how much money I’ve lost on it but it’s not going anywhere anytime soon, I love it. Hate seeing everyone slating the ingenium, look after it n it’ll look after you.
This is the video I feared! My wife has a 2017 Disco Sport (seemingly the wrong engine) HSE Sport Luxury. We bought it at the height of the covid market. I’ve been avoiding the cost of these now for a while😢. That said, regularly maintained at Premier Hazel Grove and been faultless!
What color did you get if you don't mind me asking?
I had a 2019 Disco Sport Landmark Edition with the Ingenium for about 5,000 miles and 6 months. Half the time I had it was spent at the Land Rover dealer, the other half it spent preparing itself for the Land Rover dealer. I swear nothing quite worked properly on that thing. Everything from chain rattle, to the door pull coming off in my hand. Oh, and it was beautifully maintained too. Bosch wiper blades and Bridgestone tires.... Glad this one's manual, the automatic in mine was the worst transmission I've ever had in a car.
most people say otherwise, maybe dont take care of it
Love seeing Matt properly prep and take care of cars, the way everyone should. Love the vids, keep them coming
approximately two years ago I used a taxi Co where one driver has a jag with that 2.2 diesel, he still has it but then it was on 180,000 miles and all he did was service the car.. no faults. Similar a neighbour has the 2.2 in a Mondeo from new.. no issues.. he won’t get rid because it’s so reliable and buying new is such a rip off in the UK 😮
This era of Land Rovers have great interiors imo, sturdy, luxe enough, and practical
I must say I love my Discovery Sport - Of course I have the American version, running on how do you folks say "a petrol engine". sitting at just over 60K miles, and still looks and runs great. Land Rover trolls take note.
I have a 2017 2.0 D180 HSE Lux approaching 70k miles and apart from a minor DPF issue and a worn suspension linkage it’s been great. The robust interior does everything you want, the 7 seat configuration is perfect for shuttling kids around and yes I’ve been properly off road in it. Great car. Just avoid supermarket fuel and change the oil annually and it’ll keep going.
I've got exactly the same coming up to 80k miles, been into Europe towing a caravan. Not had much problems with it, it's still on its original chain and serviced every year.
Harry’s garage just dropped a vid about why he’s given back his turd ev and gone back into a diesel Range Rover lol
Saw it earlier! Was getting worried bout him, running an EV....but he's snapped back to reality.
And broke down before he reached his destination.
@zog97xy are you paid to rubbish british products? I've seen your comments on other feeds.
Not been a British car for years sadly@@thelifeandtimesofteddywint5396
@@thelifeandtimesofteddywint5396 Don't you mean INDIAN PRODUCTS they are owned by an indian company called TATA, They are unreliable behemoths and need taking off the road.
Finally a decent car it's been a long time very nice but I do find your old bangers more entertaining
Cam belt is 7 years. Also worth checking if the steering rack bolt recall has been done 👍
Got my steering rack letter two days ago!
Love these! Interior is like an actual baby Range Rover! Got that ‘country set’, well to do image too.
We traded in our Fl2 three years ago for a 2.2 DS Hse and it's been brilliant,just had it's belts and waterpump done so it should be good for a good few years. Had the chance of an Hse Lux with the 2.0ltr ingenium when we got ours but wouldn't touch one with a barge pole.
I’ve only watched 54 seconds this but must comment Matt. The original Freelander was a very good car in period. I sold these and they flew out of the showroom.
Well done Matt, you "massively underspent"! A lovely example, it'll be sold quickly👌
Well done...nice to see a success story....my wife likes it when you do well...world is too full of bad news! Keep it up!
I have a 2016 disco sport HSE Lux and it’s been perfect. Never missed a beat even at 90k still as smooth as new. Great cars. Just have to look after them and service them well… oh and use decent fuel. Great vid Matt.
Correct
I have a late FL2 manual with the same 2.2 psa diesel. Most comfortable and capable car I've owned and on a run 50mpg. No range anxiety with over 600 miles on a tank and 5 minutes to fully charge 😊
I love your Land Rover content. You have so much trivia to add that I always learn something.
I have a 2019 Discovery Sport with the gas 2.0 liter turbo charged engine. Why in the hell would I do a 15k mile oil change? Every time I take it to be serviced, they’re like it doesn’t need an oil change! I’m sorry the oil will be changed at 6.5 thousand miles. I tell them what does it matter? I’m paying for it!! I truly wish they would send Land Rover products to the US with diesels. Amazing content, love the channel.
That's a minter shows it's been lavished with lots of money wow very nice land rover discovery surely it gonna be sold. Awesome matt keep them cheap cars coming
Brilliant 👍🏾 I’m no car expert but watching you gets my anxiety up because saying “I spent £11k plus and over “ would just let me unsubscribe 😂 you truly show “you win some, you loose some” 👍🏾
I went to see one of these, It was nice inside but then the car dealer said it wouldn’t start due to an electrical fault and was booked to go to JLR. I went home in my 2007 BMW 530d and felt the interior was better and it drives wonderfully just like new.
That looks like the nicest Discovery i have ever seen.....well done.
That's come up mint. I had an Indus silver SE Tech but with the Ingenium engine. Never had any problems with it.
Really like this car. I've always liked the Freelander 2 but this... This is nice. If i were in the market I'd definitely go for this. No doubt it will sell quickly. Nice one, Matt 👍
We had the face lifted Discovery Sport, it was a great car and overall the experience was positive for us.
I've had my disco sport landmark for over 5 years, brilliant car no faults and I would get another one if the luxury car tax didn't apply, the car does everything and having the 7 seats makes it a rare car for what it does
That’s a lovely example, it should sell very quickly, well done Matt❤.
I have a Discovery Sport, first registered in 11/2018 (I think it's a 2019 model). Is it the last series DS180, before this new DS? The engine is deisel, 150 HP, of course... now it has more than 250,000 km (110 kW), no problems. The chain in the engine, even the battery, everything is original, the first installation. Regular maintenance and no city driving at all. And yes, I replaced the generator.
7 years for the cam belt on the 2.2 Freelander 2, Evoque and Discovery Sport after 2013 I think. Had both Freelanders which never let me down looking for a Evoque Discovery Sport one day.
Not sure what it is about these car vids that makes it so compelling for a saddo car geek such as me, but it is! I could sense (and the viewers shared) your inner “Jurassic Park!” moment on discovery (no pun intended) of the matching branded tyres and floorless history folder! 👌👍😀
Let’s be honest, we all knew as soon as we saw the English Heritage sticker!
Haha exactly. Back of the net
Keep up the Partridge references, too 👌
I've seen quite a few of your videos and after the first 2 minutes anybody could see this car was a winner . Amazing that you could buy this as a trade motor as it is almost perfect 👌
Whoever traded it in can't have done their research but happy days for Matt!
I currently own a FL2 TD4 auto and a 2016 DS SD4 SE Auto. All that I can say is that they are surely proven for me the best of the best in reliability and comfort. I use the FL2 on gravel roads and as 4x4 - It is still better than any new Toyota 4x4 of any model!!
Just keep to the following when buying a TD4 or a SD4. First think block off the EGR and remove the DPF and use the best diesel you can buy. By doing this it just increases reliability by preventing exhaust gas recirculating through the engine leading to unessary carbon deposits in the engine and polluting the oil. Always add Ceratech from Liqui Moly to the oil. It is worth the costs and really reduces friction in the engine and it is noticeable smoother running.
Keep it away from the agents where you get ripped off - there are more than enough really good private Land Rover service agencies.
And lastly you can treat yourself with a reliable and recommendable remap from Celtic Tuning. The new specs is 174 kW and 500 Nm torque. It makes it even more driveable and flatten the torque curve for lower rpm at travel speed. 1800 rpm at 120 kmh giving me 12.8 km/l
What more do you want from a classy 4x4!
Hello Matt I’m considering buying a 2017 discovery sport diesel, 2 litre 100klms for a really good price . You said the 2 litre diesel is rubbish but would not expand on it. Mechanically what is the problem. Love your videos and have to laugh every car you check out, it’s filthy and needs a good scrub. Rickie from down under
I take my 2011 Autobiography L322 to A1 in Bury. Andy is a genuinely nice guy. They are quite pricey but they know their stuff. I found out the hard way of taking it to a normal garage. Don’t! Just use a specialist and if you’re anywhere near Bury, use A1. 👍🏻
After watching a video you made about a freelander 2..I bought one a 07 HSE it's the best car I've owned..I service it myself every 5 kms it's never let me down apart from a split turbo pipe!
I tow trailers etc it also spends time off road..brilliant car..it's got 220kms on clock
Finally, someone who's telling the truth about the Ingenium or what we call en España the INFERNIUM engine. I'm just finishing a video in Spanish about how to buy a Disco Sport and the 'truth' and 'LR deception' about this engine including a recording of the saleslady giving misleading information about service intervals to me. It's great being an LR fan but it's also good to inform less wealthy viewers of the potential money pits that many LR cars can end up being. Thanks for the information. Qué sigas así con los videos. Gracias 😊
As in most walks of life, quality sells. It's a great looking vehicle in great condition.
Thanks for sharing.
Matt I saw one of these go through copart.. it was undamaged but it wasn't running. It was 17 plate. Sold for £2000 the freelander and sport with the 2.2d ford/psa engine is bullet proof
I'd have bid £1000 and chanced being bitten....
@@Brian-om2hh you wouldn't of won it at £1000 it sold for 200o lol
You would be thinking would it take much to put a ford ranger 2.2 in to 1 if u paid 2k spent another 5k it be worth it
Sure ford dropped the 2.2 went to the 2ltr and its a crock alot of ford garages here in ireland pushed the 3.2 because the 2ltr problems peugeot even dropped the 2lr in the boxer and went back to a 2.2
@@noelcahill6707 I don't know which engine it was. I'm gonna guess it was the ingenium engine and that's probably why it isn't running lol
LR changed the timing belt change to 7 years or 112000 miles Matt.
Bought a DS in December 2015 had the choice of the SD4 or the ingenium. £2000 for new drive chains after 45k miles later, wished I’d gone with the 2.2 🤦♂️
Strange thing is, despite the Freelander 2 getting the Sd4 engine in 2010, it was only available as an automatic. However, the general consensus on the forums is that it suited the auto box perfectly as the Td4 was a bit sluggish with an auto box.
Lovely car Matt, that was slated to be the Freelander 3, until some bright spark at JLR decided to add it to the Discovery range to make a "family" of vehicles in the way they did with the Range Rover range. So, it's a natural progression for Freelander 2 owners to move up to one, which many on the dedicated Freelander 2 forums have done. I will say though, many bemoan the interior, claiming it looks good, but feels cheap to the touch !
Both me and my brother will move to the DS when we decide to eventually move on from our Freelander 2's. Both on high miles- I'm on 160K with my 3.2 petrol i6, and he's over 180K with his Sd4 Sport LE - but they're just so reliable. Plus there's nothing else out there that suits both our needs.
I hope you posted this after you sold the car. It's a great opportunity for a buyer to negotiate otherwise!
My son had one of these, but on a later plate with the Ingenium engine. Never out of the dealership for oil changes and DPF issues! I agree with you that the earlier 2.2 diesels were much better. Nice car for the next owner.👍🇬🇧😎
Can't have this matt where is the I've massively overspent gone but in all honesty lovely buy & perfect on budget doing well so far this year with the under budget vs I've massively overspent keep up the great content 👏
What a decent, lovely car! 😍I thought you would've kept it to add to your personal collection. The stomach rumbles - I thought it was a thunder 😂😂 Enjoy your weekend as well and don't work too much
I would have bought that if I had space. A good one is hard to find. I suspect the most off-road that has been is the Cream Tea Shop at Hatfield House!
Insurance on Land Rovers is highly expensive at the moment. Also the 2.2ltr is Euro5. So when all the Ulez charges come in, you'll be paying!
Just bought an Mazda CX-5. Have you reviewed one of these yet??
LR service for a 100£!? My local LR dealet charges 1200$ for oil change, 1800$ for bigger service (where you need to replace brake hoses) and whole 3000$ for a 10y.o. one. 'Welcome to LR ownership". At this rate it's cheaper to service a Porsche than LR.
I bought a 68 plate Disco Sport with 5000 miles 2.0 HSE Lux Diesel. The only car I have ever bought a code reader for. Did 5000 miles and bailed, with some money left in it. Great car. Terrifying reliability.
I have a Disco Sport. Lots of issues with the DPF, so paid £2.2K to get it replaced. All good now and a lovely car to drive. Not bad on fuel either when driven like an old man.
The moments you are approaching those cars the first time is like watching unboxing videos. Eager to see the next Matt, thanks…
Insurance costs for keyless ignition Land Rovers have increased, though not by as much as the press will have one believe.
I've just re-insured my Range Rover Vogue V8 diesel for less than it costs to tax it.
Use a Faraday pouch for your fob & it won't get nicked.
Brilliant cars solid engine have had one for 7 years only issue was a boot strut
Agree that the older 2.2 engine is so much better than the rubbish 2.0 Ingenium engine.
We had a disco sport hse black in that burnt orange colour with black pack before we upgraded to a velar , it was a 2 litre ingenium engine, and we never had an issue in the two years we owned it , we took it to the top end of Scotland, to the bottom end of Cornwall, only got rid of it because I wanted a Range Rover , was a nice car though .
Exactly, perfectly designed for this. Problem is folks use them to drive the kids to school around the corner... And if they also follow JLR 'extended service intervals' then God help those engines...
Love the Velar BTW, probably the only thing to pull me away from my DS :-)
Your jumper is really nice and the colour really suits you.
Steady on Matt will start vlogging clothes soon
Don’t give me ideas
Love the colour of the steering wheel,really brings out your eyes.
He'll massively overspend on his t shirts.
Would be better if it was blue
I do love your videos ...the driving segments are great, reminds me of someone!
Much more reliable example of this brand,looks very well cared for.
English heritage, tick. Lifeboats, tick. National Trust, life member, tick. You have just described me and my cars. Amazing. How do you do it?❤
Every Land Rover owner I know says they love their tractors but hate the upkeep of them, I know of a mechanic who lives close to me loves his for towing the caravan but on many occasions has to turn down weekend work to work on his own vehicle, another friend adores their sport it’s 3 years old now so the problems are beginning to come
I like mine and just done a land rover experience, very impressive performance
Enjoyable video. I am not familiar with these cars. Good to see Matt having a stressless experience and hopefully a profitable one
Absolutely love this car, I was (literally) born in the back of one of these on the motorway 😂 I'd love one just for memories and I know they are brilliant.
I parked next to an 18 Velar yesterday which was ticking over. I don't know what engine it had, but it sounded like a cement mixer full of cement and gravel and no water. TBH it didn't sound long for this world.
‘Cheap’ is not the word I would use for something that’s pretty much half a years wages to most.
Nice to see a RR looking so good after 8-9 years. Also worth noting that the 2.2 is the engine to go for and not the 2.0 Igenium lump....which does not fit it's name!
This I reckon is near the top as a perfect long trip, motorway muncher, ski trip car. Not an everyday car. They just don't shine as much with such use. The top for me would be something like a Volvo estate V90 with winter tyres and auto gearbox.
A little off topic, but if you do have to abandon the vehicle in snow and walk up the slope (did I mention the bears?), No danger of it being nicked, broken into or vandalised here in rural Japan. You'll be glad of a walking stick and a pair of wellies. However, coming down on compressed snow is a lot more tricky than going up, so one tip in addition to the stick is to put say 5.0kg of weight into your old backpack and tie two metres of rope around the handle. This acts as a brake as you drag it down the snow-covered slope, as a twisted knee is no joke.

Have a 2.2 auto Freelander 2 with 140,000 on the clock. Love it, my mechanic says the most reliable Landy. Cannot see anything on the market that comes near it. So its going to have to last me a few more years. Though this early disco with the old diesel engine could be a possible!
Great car. Love your comments on the English Heritage & Lifeboat stickers. Totally true, my step-dad who's a Lifeboat sticker guy has an Audi and if I as much get in to drive it and close the door a bit harshly he won't speak to me for a week. Count on them to baby a car. 😊
Looking forward to the Kia Soul EV review, Matt. I bought GF one, and she sold it the next day!
Do a video on these ingenium engine I have heard so many horror stories but I feel like your often the voice of reason with fear
An example of motor trading 👍
Hi matt, really good to see you get a plum for a change. I did miss your ive massively over spent catchphrase, though. Really enjoying your channel.

I bought the 2.2 hse lux model last year from main dealer, love the car but had a few bits of work done under warranty. One of these was a replacement steering rack, I think this is a recall on this model, due to snapping bolts. But like I say hopefully going to keep mine for a while as I do love the car.
Yes brov, hope you're all good...hey you did good 👍, with the disco....looks proper nice....Great vlog once again, and thanks....respect....
Btw the freelander 2 was the first. Ar to have Gen 2 haldex 4wd system before it was avaliable on vw group cars.
2.2 was by far the best one, FL 2 engine. Old Peugeot lump in drag, bad side is euro 5
Nice review as always.😃 In Norway they have redused the cambelt service from 10 to 7 years do to a bad cambelt tensioner, espesially on the sd4(190)hp engine.?
Every time i see a "I buy a cheap..." video im instantly liking it
Glad you agree with the 2.0 Ingeniboom 💥💣💥 engine. Really stops me going for a JLR 4 pot. 2.2 is a good alternative but tidy examples are hard to find.
