Boils down to whether you'd rather save the money on the new to you vehicles. Personally, with all of that work done I'd feel better about the 35d, but I do most all ofy own work and consider less than 100k on this vehicle to be low. Of course, not all of your list is standard maint items. So, as you say it really comes down to peace of mind. Doing my own vehicle work, I would NOT get the Rover, at least not without good Warranty.
