Honest John's real name is Peter and much of his "knowledge" is auction gossip. How honest is that? I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

I have heard about D4s in UK dealers with their bodies off. From this I presume that it is for turbo replacement.
Having had the turbo go on my D3 (first car in 25 years of motoring) then I would be nervous about buying a D4.

It seems that this method of access is quite normal and straightforward Andrew Just Honest John's interpretation I guess 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Phew!
Now I can not buy without worrying about it, whereas I was going to not buy one and lose sleep over it...
