I only went out for a pint of milk and came back with this..... 
 | | Click image to enlarge |
Me and my better half went for a late 2004 in the end as the alpaca leather and Sat Nav was just too shiny to resist  and it was in a tidier condition than the 2005 S we saw at a dealer!
Its not brand new and spotless but hey i'm only 25 so I figure i'm not doing too bad! Work colleagues keep asking me if i'm going shooting or dogging  
Such a step up from my old Freelander, has already caused a few "what the f are the lights on for" and then "they're bloody automatic!" .Also quite pleased with diesel consumption, 120miles back from london at 65-70 and range was still 500 miles to go although this is in the lower 400s now i'm around town.
Now if only my cover note would hurry up so I could tax it.......!!

Did you remember the milk? I'm not so good at giving advice...may I offer you a sarcastic comment instead?

Pretty soon you'll be "investing" in loads of sets of wheels, pulling the dash apart to fit lots of gizmos and getting it a little grubby like NoDo$h here!

Yours will be model year 2005... the first build year for the D3.
It was released late Nov 2004 (I think) which is why the reg is '04.
Welcome aboard

Congratulations....it all starts here, the , the the  (if someone hurts it!). I love mine more everyday and thats 13 months and 30K later....problem is its a bit addictive and you just have to spend money on it. Well done. Enjoy. If at first you don't succeed.... destroy all evidence that you tried in the first place!!
