@ Steve & Moo - sorry, just seen your posts
Yes did seriously contemplate getting a good D3.
But what is a good D3 .... even the best can start to throw wobblies and cost a fortune.
Also I wouldn't be getting rid of the excessive fuel cost, servicing & VED, and I wouldn't have the security of a manufacturers warranty.
June's £710 bill for diesel here:

So affraid the mind is reluctantly made up and a replacement 'eurosh!tbox' is already secured.
No finance, 55 v 27mpg, £140 v £460 ved ...... straight off the pocket will start feeling a little better. ...... always on the road less travelled 🚧

So sad, maybe fellow Landmark owners need to organise some sort of intervention counselling for this type of event?
