Retro conversions being offered by the Irish distributor.... available to order now. I am still awaiting detailed pricing lists....
In other words the story is very similar to what it traditionally has been here for many years now, ever since the very first Discovery Commercial 2 seat Van (anywhere in the world) was converted in Ireland, back in 1991! 2016 Discovery 4 Commercial

APL, do you know if there will be a 5 seater "Utility" model, like we had with the D4 ?

Hi Zebedee, no unfortunately there won't be one - the Discovery 5 does not conform to the rules for same. The boot space is not equal to one third of the total interior space and and door aperture is not large enough.... 2016 Discovery 4 Commercial

Thanks for the info APL 
I guess so, should I decide to return to LR, it will a "real one" I'll have to get. Or else get a really fresh end of line, 2nd hand D4.

Bear in mind that apart from the VAT reclaim bit, the cost of running the 5 seat D5 is not too bad....tax is only €570 as opposed to €1,200 for the 7 seat D4.... By the time you've paid for the CVRT test and the €333 road tax the difference is not that much more...... 2016 Discovery 4 Commercial

Hi APL
As oracle of everything to do with Irish D5s, do you know if, as Irish Times in their review stated that all Irish Discoverys are fitted with air suspension. Yet it appears that electronic air suspension is an option.
Concerned that if not, will coil suspension take from ride quality.
Also a small point,but does HSE model come with heated front seats as standard. My dealer told me they do but I'm not too sure.

Hi Case1,
Only the TDV6 engines come with air suspension as standard, it is an option on the SD4 but not on the TD4. (As far as I am aware). Ride quality seems OK but my test drive did not include a heavy load....
The Td4 HSE I tested did not have heated front seats as standard, no. Didn't even have a heated front screen either! 2016 Discovery 4 Commercial

For the first time I've seen a few D5s in the last week, on the road in the South of Ireland, Cork. Starting to appear.
We've hand them since 1992, so looking forward to a D5 at some stage in the future.

Erea,
Seen a lovely black D5 in Carrick on Shannon about 2 months ago, an RN reg. I'm not a fan of them however I had to admit it looked good whilst it was going over the bridge crossing the Shannon. But at the price that they are looking for them, it would be hard to justify spending that amount of money just to have one. For that reason I traded a M12 D4 commercial for a MY15 D4 commercial in the UK, hoping the changeover won't be too bad..... 
Apart from that one, I have never seen another D5 in Ireland since. MY15 D4 Causeway Grey
MY12 D4 Orkney Grey - Gone
MY07 D3 Java Black - Gone

Many of you may now be aware that there is a brand new version of the Discovery 5 Commercial Van in the Republic of Ireland, and at long last it appears to be identical to the UK version!
I regret to say that in the last while I have left Ireland for France where I’m living in the mountains and enjoying every second of it. I will be in the UK quite a bit but not in Ireland so much from now on.
Now that I have a bit more spare time once again I look forward to being able to communicate on here a bit more again just like the old days!
Regards,
APL. 2016 Discovery 4 Commercial
