Just upgraded to a D4
Hi, new to the forum. Just upgraded from a 2009 D3 to this Fuji white 2014 Discovery 4 XS with 110,000 on the clock.

Had the car thoroughly checked over and at the same time had all new timing belts fitted, new water pump, new oil pump, full oil service and a gear box flush with new filter.
Will probably add Xenon lights with DRL, black 20" wheels, side steps ect. Loving her so far, really nice to drive.

Looks very nice Uncle Ray's spare wheel protector
Limo Tint
Blackvue front & rear dashcam
Cruise control switch pack
Bodsy's remote for FBH
If you're on 19" wheels, give them a go before throwing money at it. Many find the ride better on 19's.
And you'll find a 50/50 split on side-steps ... the scars on mine prove they've saved me from twits who fling their car doors open without looking/thinking, so I'm a big fan. And aftermarket eBay ones aren't dear and look just like OEM..

Certainly a good choice, I love white particularly when it’s clean , one thing for sure white hasn’t been used for off road or dirty work. As above stick with 19”s, I have two sets, 19” Wranglers for winter, 21” Verdes for summer, the set back with 21/22” in winter is they are a harder ride and they throw muck up the side of the vehicle.
Consider tree sliders as apposed to side steps, side steps have a limited life due to corrosion, if you go for side steps give them a coat of Hammerite paint before fitting It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Sure, the full service was done by my local Landrover independent (Wantage 4x4) in the Cotswolds.
All the timing belts, new water/oil pump, full oil service and gear box megaflush with new filter set me back £1480.00 inc VAT.
The gearbox flush has really made a huge difference.
