test drive

Dropping my D4 off today as there is an engine earth problem .. AA did temp fix to get me home last night .

While sorting out a car to use , they threw some keys at me and said go and try that

HSE TDV6 3.0 ... drove amazing , seats held you in place nicely .

Couple of things I noticed

Cameras ( surround ) ..much better than the last D4 ones .. but they do switch off after 20mph.

Also the 360 degree looked a bit silly on the great big screen




It was raining , but still a marked improvement






Infotainment screen is nice .. seems to work well









You can drop all the headrests via the screen .. but have to manually put them back up




This is the one I took out












Curry hook











loads of room in engine bay






Had this bad boy in showroom .. 1st edition in black ( HSE LUX ) .. just sold for £68000






There is going to be a safety recall on side steps .. there is an issue


I'm on the configurator now Thumbs Up G4 Gone ...but not forgotten
