2007 Discovery 3 TDV6 XS Manual Lugano Teal

I am really struggling to justify an HSE as I can get all the options I need on the XS for a good chunk of change less, even including the adaptive xenons.

The big stumbling block for the XS is my missus is only just a shade taller than 'dwarf' and I had promised myself electric seats & memory on the next car to save the contortions getting in after she had been driving and they are not even an option on the XS!!

Cheers for the comments, opinions & info,

Rich

I know what you mean, have exactly the same problem and I'm looking forward to going back to a spec with seat memory - roll on February/March

LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.

I am not saying the D4 is expensive - but you could probably buy yourself an XS and buy your missus a small car and still save yourself money over an HSE

Forget the XS - having had a SE its a NO Spec( I have a XS now

) - I wish I had the HSE so much better, dont waste your cash on the XS wait and get the HSE,

Just seems an expensive jump for a panoramic roof and premium seats! I know there are other things but they can be put on the XS without totting up to 7k.

I understand. but the XS is very disapointing, I was told by my dealer it was close to the SE! Hold back save up the 7 k - I wish I did!! - Still a great car but live with, the if only.....
