Question on roof antenna

Perhaps a stupid question but I am curious to know if this is just a general antenna for radio or if it has some other use!?
I have never seen anything like it on my previous discovery3 or others I have seen!

It's on my 2007 D3 tdv6 hse

Any ideas what it is or what it's uses are if any?

It houses the telephone antenna

So on the D3 there's a mobile phone antenna?

Not at all .. It's all done via Bluetooth now so no need for an external antenna

It was also removed from the d3 in 2008 I think G4 Gone ...but not forgotten

I cant see a phone holder fitted in the car! I use the bluetooth function on My D3!
When i first saw it i thought it was some sort of tv antenna or something Like that

Tv antennas are build into the glass on the rear side windows

You may not have the cradle in place but you should have the dock

Pretty rare for mobile phones to have an external aerial socket these days, so little point making provision for one on the car.
