Hi. We considered the Discovery for a short while but decided to go with the Ranger. Both are good value for money but we felt the Discovery was a bit too basic for our needs.Whilst similar in appearance, the Discovery lacked creature comforts such as blown air heating, Heki skylight, front table, 4 burner hob and other things.
If these things aren't important then its probably worth a look. It's a lot of van for the money.

Have to agree with nightoff about the ranger / discovery comparison. More money for the Ranger but a significant up lift in equipment.

I Agree completely with Fat Belly and Nightoff. The price difference isn't that huge to move up to a Ranger, and in my opinion, it's a much better buy.   

For us it was the inclusion of fly screens, the big Heki sunroof and the blown air heating that did it - oh and the inclusion of an oven on the Ranger (not on Discovery).
