Good call re checking any warranty work.
It’s got the ebony interior (as has my blue D4). I fancied the tan interior this time, but then saw this Zanzibar coloured car. Personally I think it might look a bit odd with that colour outside and the tan interior, but that’s just me. I fancied a Firenze red/tan interior HSE Luxury, but as I say I (sorry, the boss!) saw this and liked it!
Both front cameras are fine (I tried everything that I could think of), and everything works.
My ONLY thing is that the car isn’t two years old yet and I will be the third owner. You might be quite right about the previous owner trading it in for something else - D5?
I am being told that we are having it, so............
Thanks again folks.

Good news
I remember (quite a few years ago) buying a 4 year old Volvo 850 Estate, for my folks, from a main dealer. Everything was absolutely fine, until I asked about the number of owners... 5!!
Against my instinct, we went for it all the same. It was a damn good car and they got another 7 or 8 trouble free years out of it before trading it for a V70.2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8
2023 to date: FL2 as a second car
2021 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200
2022 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200 & sidecar!
(One of only two known to exist in the world!)

The only warranty work that the car’s had was for a loose bit of windscreen trim.
The previous owner was a local lady who did indeed trade the car in for a brand new D5.
HOWEVER, the first owner wasn’t LR, it was Scot Group who I think are - a car rental company!!!! S**t!!

Here’s the D3 that I owned for three years, next to the D4 that I have now owned for over six years! As and when we get the orange RAC van, you’ll be amongst the first to see it!
