I came very close to buying a new Cayenne after typical lousy service from LR dealer when interested in a new FFRR, but something happened recently that made me realise I needed more space and something I wasn't going to precious about. Sadly there is nothing else that competes with a D3/D4 so i'm off to pick up a D4 tonight.
This will be an interim car until hopefully something like the Rivian is launched in the UK.
Anyway, if anyone has any questions about the Old Bus then just ask away.
Its ifs still running really well, how come you are swapping to a D4? Just fancy a change? or want more power??

I’m going to take everything off and move it to the next car.
Good idea as everything will fit The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the best of everything they have.
Sadly there is nothing else that competes with a D3/D4 so i'm off to pick up a D4 tonight.

That is a serious bargain for someone.
