My D3 - Zambezi 2004 Its started again..

Well as most of you know this is my second D3 on the bounce within 10 months ....

Started the mods ... still as much fun 2nd time round ... Mr. Green

My first D3 was a manual 2006 TDV6 Bonatti ..... clocked by 'others' back in 2009 ... Shocked

Lucky to get every penny back... or was it hard work ... Whistle

Now replaced after visiting Scotland with a 2004 TDV6 SE ...

First mod ...

A Beanie and Narpy grill...

Its my grill so despite Beanies comments I'm calling it a 'BeaNarpy' Laughing

Thanks to both as each had contributions and parts to help out let alone their time ....






(update was spelling only Embarassed )

Well I can confirm it was very very clean when it left Scotland, maybe he hasn't used it much Whistle

It's still a great looking car and look forward to seeing it when it's all colour coded Thumbs Up


Did you get the widows tinted and the rear lights fitted Bobs? It would compliment the silver and black nicely....

You know how I feel about the Orange bits as well. Whistle Whistle Whistle
