Cheers Moo
That was the plan originally and is good advice.
Not sure travelling to look at a car outside of Liverpool City Region would qualify as essential travel under current lockdown rules.
I should've hunted last week eh?Kamikazi

Breaking pandemic laws/infecting (being infected by) forum members, may be pushing the envelope of my desire to own a D3
Maybe I'll wait....Kamikazi

Hiya
Many thks as I must have read some of the specs wrong , Which lead me to believe that
5 x seaters were made in base models only
5 x seaters coils only
There was no terrain response fitted to the 5 x seaters
Thks again for the heads up as every day is a school day

Well on my driveway is a 5 seater TDV6 HSE build 2005 (MY 2006 model) VIN proves that it left the factory as a 5 seater in HSE spec... so your info must be wrong 😑Best regards
