My New Discovery 3

Just wanted to thank you all for all the help and advice recently Thumbs Up Alaska White . Finally got a deal done with a private seller last night. Found a Silver Discovery 3 HSE 2005 plate with 93000 on the clock. its a 3 owner full service history. its had the belts done. Have a look at the pictures. I am now looking for ideas about what i should do to modify it. I am thinking the following;

remap
privacy glass to b pillar
just bought black 17" alloys but looking for ideas on what mud terrain tyres to fit.
Have a snorkel but needs fitted
underneath protection
headlight and car light protectors
remove the side steps
possible bull bar and spots
mirror covers
door handle covers
Piano Black interior
Piano Black steering wheel from Powerfulluk
Piano Black Gear Shifter
Dash Cam front and rear.

Please add to my list with ideas costs and wher[/si[/s
ize]ze]e to get.

I have a RV4 with deluxe side panels, I love it but would not put it up in any sort of wind ! Not after ice fest this year. I thought I was going to lose the lot Shocked

It is when my backside is firmly planted in it Laughing Tbh Stephen when I did the N500 back in April it was fine (The RT) when we had a very windy and snowy night in Applecross. I would prefer to use the RT in bad weather and as you may have seen from our August holiday the RV is great for summer Thumbs Up

He probably means that the rings for the cup holders in the center console are missing the actual holders. There are at least two models, ones that are round (original D3 I believe) and that need an insanely sized drink container to actually keep it upright. The other version is an improved one (D4 version I believe) as it has bumps to keep that McDonald’s soda pop container in place. The part number is LR087454. Thumbs Up
