Bye Bye D3, Hello D4
Ordered yesterday - D4 HSE / Stornaway / Ebony / Privacy and 20" wheels
To say I am excited is an understatement
First time I've ever bought the 'same' car twice - testament to a great car and also this site, so thanks guys and looking forward to another 5 years of total fun

SWMBO doesn't know yet
Timing is everthing
When I bought a new steering wheel - explained that the old one was an MOT failure because it was to slippy
Missus has zero interest in cars - hence picking the right time

Very pleased for you Adam
I think we better have another pub meet so you can show it off. When do you get it?

Good idea! Only don't lets choose The Hesketh - what a moronic place that's turned into - was there at lunch today - totally ruined since the 1980's Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

Here we go. . .
D3 sx (oops, sorry, xs !) 59: under £34k.
D4 xs 59: over £42k.
What's the difference? Er, heated seats, fancy lights a new engine what does the same job. Oh! I forgot, the TR dial's in a different place!
Clarkson's right! Discos ARE for murderers. But d3's are for tight murderers!

Your right, but at 5 years old and 95K on the clock needed to change and for the first time in 20 years of getting a new motor never tempted to look at anything else

Agree about the Hesketh - my nearest puib - but sadly now a carvery that serves beer - much prefer the Millington
