Manual '09 - bought one of the last available, as although I liked the D4 no manual gearbox versions were available, although IIRC they were listed by LR in the publicity material.

Using the logic mentioned above, that must mean the D4 is for girls only!

Well. This old. Thread again all the above just proves that its great car auto or manual but for me manual for the driving experience but when your kicking around town then i think auto is theway to go and most of us end up doing lots of that . swmbo says its auto next time as she finds it heavy and hard work around town bht im hoping i can palm her off with an ewock and keep the disco for me
