Not had it collected by the dealer for some warranty work, as they've rescheduled it to next week without telling me...
Cue a bit of a strop on my part, and miraculously it's going in tomorrow instead.Gordon

Here are some bad photos I took last night. Will get some better ones at the weekend..
The Bluetooth 4 switch relay I got from eBay for about £13 delivered. It came with a crappy app, which does he job, however, I am going to write my own app at some point. I did this because I wanted to be able to put the light guys on and off from inside a roof top tent.

Made this to charge via my towing electrics.
Jaguar I-Pace HSE imminent.
Gone HSE with Flappy Paddles. IID BT tool. RLD Spare Protector, Altox GPS.
D3 passed its mot today with one advisory, slight play in both steering rack inner joints. He said its one of the best he has seen for its age and milage (I did not have to bribe him either ) He just said it is getting a bit scabby underneath and would benefit from some sort of underbody treatment like wax oil . I'm very pleased with that as its always stressful when your 13 year old car goes for its test The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the best of everything they have.

Rang the dealer today to see if they'd finished the warranty work on the Landmark: after nearly 40 minutes on hold, it seems they haven't as it's now developed an airbag fault.
...but apparently it does now have a replacement O/S adaptive headlight (beam needed adjusting) and headlining (sunroof blind retaining clips MIA).Gordon

And today's update: it seems there's now a fault with the curtain airbag owing to a damaged connector. Dealer has quoted a price of £1800 for the wiring loom, which is a special order part (unsurprisingly!).
I'm glad I'm not paying for it! Gordon

Had the D3 cleaned after being caked in mud whilst doing some tree jobs.
Bought a spare full sized HSE alloy with new tyre and is now under the D3
