There is an Article in the Fall 2010 issue of Overland Journal that touts the 1995 Disco with the Manual Trans is the best of the breed for rovers. My folks are looking for a "Conch Cruiser" for their winters down here and I could use a spare vehicle for when something happens with the 100, which is rare, but co-ownership of a solid axle'd V8 with a manual transmission is very tempting.
