Not a single problem to report here. I am loving this truck! Much more interesting & fun to drive than my Toyotas. I keep waiting for the "new" to wear off but each day is as fun as the first.

This is what I like to see, a little bit of balance to show that we have made the right decision to spend our hard-earned!

9 months and nearly 15,000 miles, with only one return to the dealer for what was a non-event with the suspension. I've never done this sort of milage in a year before. I usually average around 9000 in 12 months.
I've had quite a few very quick cars, but nothing compares to driving the D3. I actually look for places to go on a regular basis just so I can drive it. Quite a few return journeys so far from Edinburgh to Legoland Windsor. 1000miles in 24hrs and it does it without stress or strain on machine or passengers.
We are now looking to take our first motoring jaunt into Europe, which I would never have considered before.
"Mmmmmm....I'm loving it!"

3000 miles a few weeks old and all fine here. Once I thought to wait on the chime when starting her up.

A month old, almost 2000 miles, and only problem so far is a "Passenger door open" error a couple of times. No major panic, and unless it gets worse will get sorted at first service.
