I suppose were all to blame for such models appearing to be what they are not, as we are constantly chopping and changing our Discos to look like earlier models, why don't we all go for D4s I suppose even then we would not be satisfied!!

they mucked about with the spec late 2005 by adding the extra bits like BT and a couple of other things which pushed the list of the HSE up from about £41k to over £43k from memory, I think the type of leather was the same in the SE/HSE until MY07 when the premium stuff was offered though ?and theeeeennn......???

Only thing I would retro fit to mine is the BT and the cubby fridge.
Wouldn't have a manual HSE though. Just wrong.In loving memory of FA54WSK.
Rest well old friend, your work is done.

Defo not an HSE. Looks like it's got aftermarket tinting on the windows too. Did early HSE's not have factory tints?2006MY Discovery 3 S

Only as an option. Tints never standard AFAIK.

What seems most off is that the dealer has pasted the standard spec of the HSE in the ad where it is obvious the car doesn't have much of it.
I made a similar remark to someone advertising on eBay recently.
The reply I got, and I quote, was:
"...the description is accurate and the ..., may I suggest you contact people with your patronising emails when you actually know what you are talking about"

I am confused as to why it shows up as an HSE on all the checks on insurance databases etc, how do you go about changing that sort of stuff?3 Flash Indicators
