2 x interesting D4 on autotrader
My brother was bombarding me with links to D4 on autotrader as he is getting a bit annoyed at the amount of things that have gone wrong with his LR Approved DS over the last 3 years.
I had a curiosity browse at whats around and found these interesting ones.
This one looks like it needs a really good clean up but has some potentially useful mods for someone at what appears to be a good price

dont knock a business opportunity when you see one
im no fan of body kits on LR/RR but IMO thats one of the better ones, just maybe not in that colour. It was the screens i was more interested in and wondered if it may have belonged to a forum member.
the white one is definitely a good base for an overlander providing the mechanics are in good order and the tow bar doesnt disintegrate2011 D4 XS 305 MY12 - gone but not forgotten

The white one looks like a really useful vehicle, plenty of kit built in.
The maroon one is interesting in so much as someone has clearly spent lots of money on it. I don't think I've ever seen that shade of leather so that could be bespoke (the third row covers look a bit loose and rubbish) and that centre screen is certainly unique.
Not keen on the body kit, I wonder if the front tyres rub as there's not much clearance.1998 Defender 110 TUM HS FFR Hard Top XD WOLF
