D3 Purchase

Due to the fact that Sants will probably not give me a D3 at Christmas I would like some advice about what to look for when buying a 70,000 miler as I have found an auto SE model. The help you guys gave me on the other thread I started was great so I am sure this one will be no different.

Thanks all
 D3 please Santa

Yep lindowpete plenty of genuine bits on E-bay. Sets of wheels are cheaper than tyres from local dealers Smile

I got a good deal on an ex-demo S 7 seat and added bits I wanted, next bit is tints when I get back off hols. Couldn't get it booked in before Sad

Love it, and it's my fifth LR! Glutton for punishment Smile
