so the question is - what sense does it make to pay extra 30-40K replacing old with a new version of same vehicle which is still bad on consumption compared to rivals?

What rivals! 2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8
2023 to date: 2 x FL2 as “second” cars 🙄
2021 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200

not so many rivals
more of the size of the vehicle and engine rivals not so much of the capabilities rivals
still the best choice IMHO

I would struggle to get that from my current Freelander 2 SD4 Auto! I'd be chuffed to get anything like that for a Disco! There is a faint glimmer of hope yet!2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
