School run favourite

I have now seen at least 10 D3's driving up and down the school roads nearby. The majority of them are zambezi silver, with two java blacks with fully tinted windows and silver side runner bars (very nice). Also noticed a base 5 seater in blue.
Clearly a great car for ferrying children, and I can't blame them Exclamation

Hey, can't quite achieve six kids, but we do have FIVE Confused , with a recent addition to the family being a boxer puppy!
Travelling around with 5 kids in the car, all of them wearing headphones listening to CDs - while the missus and I listen to the radio in the front... bliss!

Scotland 2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 Base 7 Seat Manual Buckingham BlueDiscovery 3

Ours normally has at least 3 kids on any journey- we seem to attract quite a few hangers-on and regularly find 'spare' children seemingly smuggled on board. They all love the D3- possibly the commanding view (better than the previous Galaxy), or the 'chunkiness' (as my daughter puts it), or my habit of long 'short cuts' suddenly announced that just happen to involve off road sections.
The older ones love the ample legroom too (as do we- they can't quite manage to kick our seat backs from the middle row).
I don't think there is a better family vehicle!
