Discovery 4 HSE SDV6 on order for collection in June. Ipanema sand. Mud flaps, sidesteps, chrome wing mirror tops and daytime running lights to be fitted as extras. Interior is Almond with Arabica dash and blackwood inlays. Boot will be fitted with the landrover load tray to keep the dog off the trim.
Just traded my HSE Freelander 2 in which was a damn fine machine for the couple of years i had it.

Sounds like a nice spec, have they loaned you a car or are you still in the FL2?

treat yourself to a 'Hatchbag' to protect the trim from the dogs, can't recommend them enough. I have my next one on order for my D3, this will be my 8th.

Very similar spec to mine, but I went for Almond/Nutmeg cos I wanted almond door caps. I would second the Hatchbag recommendation - great piece of kit, and I bought the rubber mat from them as well. MY12 D4 HSE Ipanema Sand

Ok thanks a lot.
I've got a different make which was brilliant in my Range Rover but the version for the disco 4 is not very good at all. Glad I found out about the Hatchbag...looks a proper bit of kit which, unlike the one I have at present, looks as if it fits!
I love my Black Lab dearly but boy do he shed the hairs especially after wotking all day in the rain!!
Thanks for the info
Paul
