Am I the only one hanging on to my D3? Mind you after a superb day offroading on sand last Sunday I think I'm keeping her forever, we've bonded!! And she was knocking the spots off the 2 x D4s there.

Both very experienced off-roaders and one an ex instructor. They were doing nothing different to what I was doing, plus 2 other D3s.

You weren't at Marquenterre by any chance were you? We were there and saw a groups of Brit reg Discos there and I did wonder if it was anyone on here?

Was indeed us, you with the Deafners on Sunday? We were 3 Brit registered & 2 x Luxembourgers. Looked like some of the Deafners & Freebie 1 were having a few mechanical issues.

That's probably due to tyre choice.
I'm assuming that you were running the might Pirelli ATR's, less aggressive tread pattern than most other AT tyres, which (so I'm told) helps on sand. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE
