Forum car - GY59FPO

After bad experience buying a FFRR from someone on a sister forum, I’m looking for a D4.

I came across this one which appears to have been owned by a forum member - does anyone know the car?

Out of date profile!

I got back to UK a couple of months ago after 3 years in Singapore.

Drove on the left. UK influenced road signs and markings. Much more aggressive style of driving than UK - no courtesies such as letting someone in at a junction etc. - and got to watch out for open backed vans carrying construction workers, and moped / motorbike riders in flipflops zooming up the gaps between lanes of traffic!

Car ownership there was prohibitively expensive and a sign of very high status. As comparison, LR UK website has Discovery ‘from £55k’ - similar vehicle from LR in SG starts at the equiv of about £215k…

Despite that, on the morning commute I’d see large numbers of Phantoms, Cullinans, Lambourghinis, Astons, Ferraris and McLarens (I guess those who drive in London would see similar).

So that’s the long story about why I’m looking for a D4 in UK!!!!

Correct - and I remember where you then lived.

Have you moved?
