Ah Good job then. Looks like you are having a good snowfall there. Hope you get chance to test the D3's awesome snow capabilities.

I didnt think the FBH came on the Aussie spec or at least that's what I was told. Was it one of those errant freebies Land Rover occasionally slip's in?

Ordered our new D3 at the end of March - the dealer confirms it was built in May and shipped start of June. So hoping it's way past the Cape and approaching the west coast of Oz by now!! Expected landfall end-June.
(Last 3 months have gone extremely slowly............)

Indeed it was. Somehow managed to get the full cold climate pack. Seat heaters, electric heated windscreen and FBH. Who ever decided we don't need them in Aus (generally), needs a stern talking to. Mad

Hi Glymmer_Man,
Is your D3 a MY2006 HSE? perhaps that is why they have included the cold climate pack (or is it simply the luck of the draw)? also, how do you know if you have FBH?

Cheers, Vic.

Hi Baggy,

Mines a MY05, model, which I bought Dec 05. I know it has the FBH, because I can see it, and I ran it while I was in the snow, with the Cabin Pre Heat, and just warming the car.

I also use the cabin pre-cool function often.

Didn't order the pack, just got it. No complaints here. Very Happy
