United Kingdom 2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 Base 7 Seat Manual Baltic BlueDiscovery 3
WJ05 RBX Transformed

So, I bought this truck from a dealer in Torquay on Friday, it used to belong to a member on here (you know who you are Sir). Now, he'd obviously looked after it, but there's been some 18months of ownership by a third party until I got my grubby mits on it.
So, since yesterday afternoon I've done the following.......
Wind deflectors
New badges
Chrome fog surrounds
Front & rear cameras
New LR dust caps
LED bulbs inside
New LR centre caps
New number plates
Painted the towbar
limo tints from the A pullers back
And then I've spent 8hrs today cleaning/detailing her from top to bottom, inside & out!

Megs trim, then Auto finnese back to black, and finally sealed with FUSSO wax. A tad OTT but I'm like that 😳

Looks like tints from the B pillar back to me Confused

It is nice to have a clean car, but I can't say spending that amount of time on mine floats my boat, wash leather and very occasional polish, the car is used and looks like it Thumbs Up

Pleased it pleases you Mr. Green
