The tail of two Discos - which one to get as my first off-roader/overlanding vehicle?

Welp, just got word that the D1 I posted about sold to someone else. Too slow...

Yeah. Even though the price guides deduct $$ for a manual transmission, they tend to sell quick if at all reasonably priced. As a long time 5-speed owner I'd choose one over an automatic in a heartbeat.
Heck, I might even think about buying a DII if they were available here in a 5-speed. Still wouldn't buy one, but I'd think about it. lol

having a classic, the D1 is more in my comfort zone so i vote that as well. the d2 looks like something from Jurassic Park...
