2006 Metropolis
I have done a deal with a friend of mine to sell my D4 and take his metropolis in px. Its a 2006 in black with around 135000 miles. I will give it a good check over when i get it but it will be up for sale as soon as i get it
My disco is only used very occasionally so i am prepared to run the D3 for a while if necessary and being a metropolis its not exactly slumming it
More pics and details to follow
This will be my 6th D3/D4, getting to be an addiction now

Here is the new acquisition

It needs a set of window waist rubbers and i suspect front wishbones as there is a knocking under braking. It will be getting a good road test this weekend upto the lake district so should find out if there is anything major to sort
When all the jobs are sorted on it, it will be going up for sale to fund the next project Previous Discos
