Disco D3 bug
Hi, fairly new to the forum and thanks to Oswiperus giving me the bug last year when I borrowed his Silver D3 following a major oil leak on a XC90.....this made my mind up to purchase a D3 of my own
With the help from Oswiperus we have made some modifications which can be seen below..
Now...
How it originally looked.....
Windows tinted, Clear side indicators, side steps, window wind deflectors, 30mm wheel spacers 20" BBS alloys and not forgetting Disco3 sticker at the rear.
Bits that can't be seen EGR blanked, lower rear arms replaced, aux belt, full oil change gearbox, diff, engine and all the filters.
Planning to de tango lights in the next week or two and to replace swallow wheel nuts
New window screen to be fitted next week following a stone cracking screen
Again none of this could have been achieved without the help of Oswiperus 06 Disco 3 S, 20" BBS landy wheels, side steps, tinted windows
51 Porsche 911 Carrera 4
53 Mini Cooper S
05 A4 Convertible 1.8T gone😢
14 Audi Q3 gone
66 Volvo XC60 R design
Range Rover P38 sold

That Oswiperus chap has a lot to answer for!!
He also gave me the bug and cost me a small fortune
In his defence though he has saved me a small fortune as well
