Ordered my new TDV6 D3 last week, will receive in 2/3 weeks. Couldn't wait 3/4 months for rear diff lock option which is a shame.
Does the D3 come with the tow bar tongue?? if not, how much LR want for it??

Hi, congrats and welcome to the site, the receptacle for the removable or fixed adjustable height tow bars, ie the female part, is part of the steel girder in front of the rear bumper.You just pull out the red plastic infill thingy to fit either tow bar into it. Both types of tow bar are extra however, about £250 for fixed and £300 ish for removable, sometimes some good ones on e bay for a fair bit less. Twin (uk) electrics kit is another £80 odd, all of these can be fitted yourself if you are reasonably practical.

The towbar tongue on my TDV6 SE is removeable and they cost around $200 plus.

if by tongue you mean the piece where you put the ball or whatever type you use, I had one made and it cost me $70. I believe the removeable hitch comes as standard (it did with my HSE), that is the LR plough or so I've been told
