Pulled up next to a Buckingham blue hse last week at Rosehill and couldn't help but check out the options it was loaded with - must be a company car
I see a zermatt every morning travelling (usually stopped in traffic actually) in the opposite direction at Rosehill as well.
Am finding it hard to remember I'm a d3 owner. Whenever I park it and return I think wow look at that nice vehicle over there - it's just like mine except it's grey and mine is silver - oh it is mine.
I have never owned a silver car but I keep looking for a silver d3

Saw a few D3s at Alto service today.
A silver D3 with snorkel and ARB Bar on the way. I waved but he didn't even look>
Sorry CW Last post disapeared, will re-post
thanks for sympathy for SWIMBO
My seat is like the cloth one- very saggy:
looked like this after a year:

A straight on flash doen't do justice to the crease.
Alto got the cloth kit in to fix it before they relaised it was leather.
No TSB for leather seat. I will push them when it gets worse, probably just before warranty runs out.“There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€

Outstanding is a deformed seat base and the farting.
Nothing has ever stopped mine. Yet. Including large rock crawls mud and water.
Still have Permagrin.
Sounds like a case for one of the medicos on the forum. Check member to member services. Someone might do PC calls.
Sorry to SWIMBO. Best of luck with the seat. I had My drivers seat replaced LS&B 12 months ago because it was sinking and would have to be raised again every so, very, often.Did you think I would leave you crying,
When there's room in my D3 for 7,
Climb in here Joe we'll soon be flying,
I can go just as fast with 7.

In a moment of madness (and some free time) a quick BUT free online consult of your symptoms suggest to me that your 'deformed seat base' is more likely a sagging one (common problem in females ) and that only surgery can fix it (or maybe Botox).
As to the Wind you are experiencing that is one of the reasons LR removed the curry hook from D3s in order to reduce this happening whilst in one of their vehicles
It only needs to be stopped if it is a problem

Caver - don't stop waving!!! I'll always wave back
Don't know what it is about some of these D3 owners - they drive past and don't want to notice - even think you're a bit daft for waving. What's happened to the 'brotherhood'?
About the seat - mine is headed that way as well.
Vic.'11 TDV6 - Stornoway Grey.... still lovin' it!!
REDUCE GREENHOUSE GASSES.......Eat more BEEF!!
Addendum: Red wine goes REALLY well with BEEF
Baggy - you are one of the few silver D3 owners that wave!
I have RSI from waving at D3s on the road and notice that silver ones and those driven by females hardly every wave back.
Cheers,
Rob

i agree with Vic, keep waving ... I always look and wave, but never get a return either ...
I did once though ... I was in southern Tassie on the Huon Highway at Lower Longley (with NSW plates on my D3) and waved to another D3 (who had VIC plates) and he waved back... my wife looked at me and laughed saying you have made a friend now from Victoria while in Tassie !! ....
You can never grin or wave to a RRS ... they think they're above you or something ....
only reason i'd go for a RRS now is the TDV8, but then again I prefer having the larger boot space.
i'll wait for the TDV8 in the D3 (or D4) thanks very much.

I don't wave it is a female unless they wave first.
Get quite a few replys from D2 owners though.“There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€
