My new D3
So I've been lurking on here for the last couple of weeks reading and researching about a potential purchase. After going and looking at a few I decided to take the plunge and bought this one.
It's a 55 plate MY2006 HSE with 76,000 miles.
Couldn't be more happier with it, well maybe if I could get a few more MPG out of it.
I had the dealer do the belt service included in the sale price and have 12 months LR select warranty.
The bluetooth system is a bit archaic so I think a D4 version may be required.

Sorry for the crap phone pictures
Although this is my first post I'd like to thank you all for the great wealth of knowledge on this site which has hopefully helped me escape from some of the potential pitfalls. :thumbsup:

Welcome, nice find that, an unspoilt and low mileage 55 plate HSE.
I reckon that would be Bonatti grey though at that MY, same as my first d3

Your correct it is Bonatti grey not Stornaway.
Thanks for the welcome, I just hope it's some time before I need a helping hand when something goes wrong.
