Discography
Number 5 is alive.................
Collected yesterday as a replacement for the duff Defender 110, 2007 GS Auto in Zermatt. Absolutely delighted with it , better drive than the FFRR to be honest. I really must keep this one, every time I sell a D3 on I regret it, there is no better car on the market for what I need. I am giving SWMBO the V5 when it comes and asking her to hide it!!!!
The Discography goes like this
1. 2005 55 Base 7 Manual - Bonatti Grey
2. 2006 56 Base 7 Auto - Zermatt
3. 2005 55 G4 HSE Auto - Tangiers
4. 2005 55 S Manual - Tonga
5. 2007 57 GS Auto - Zermatt2020 BMW X1 18d XDrive X-Line Auto

here's my bet
3 months followed by two weeks of selling bits on.
2 weeks of post sale depression followed by 3 weeks dabbling in another brand then a return to square one. and I'm laying down 50 bucks.
