Goodbye X5, Hello TDV6 HSE
Thanks for all your help and suggestions over the past couple of months. I have bought a great big black beast and keen to start playing with and getting it snowy!
Anyone who goes from a Disco 3 to an X5 needs shooting, nicer to drive, more comfortable, returned 29.9mpg today on a 200 mile run and looks the squirrels!
Looking forward to some South West / Midlands forum meets and events.
Thanks Matt_tdv6 for everything. Time for me to start adding stuff to it....... screens, remote heater start, new tyres, etc

Well done - from when I tested them the X5 is all marketing and no substance.

you do know the front wings on your D3 are very very special don't you? Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
I wouldn't say special, just unusual on a D3The End
