Mines a 57 plate XS
One like Gaz has for sale is another £10k on top of what mines worth ?
And I'm no better off as the dreaded 105k service is looming on top of that ?
Plus it's an oil pump casing basket case ?
It would be cheaper for me to employ a driver ?
You value yours at £8k what's the mileage on the 2007 XS hand shifter then?

Car dealers are, well like Estate Agents but not as clever and used Discoverys are expensive but mines only worth peanuts as a PX ?
Still struggling with the price for mine V price to change up ?
Baring in mind I'm a displaced Jock with shorter arms and longer pockets it could be a while before anything concrete is decided !
On a more serious note FFRR's are a bargain compared to a D4 !
Not all car dealers are ex founders/owners of very successful city finance companies either
PS: You think I do this because I have too

And I was trying to be helpful .....
Surely 'Chalky' if you state model, colours, mileage and price range Gary could try and help ....
It would save Beanie looking for the bumper kit and alloys and all the other stuff he's looking out for you ..... to pimp .... sorry mod your D3 ...... D4 Front upgrade/cut back wings n things 'taking a long time but getting there'.
D4 rear upgrade - Narpys helped with that bit
Flack for problem solving and D4 Bluetooth Install/ D4 Heated Steering wheel with Flappy paddles n BBS enabling kit
Disco Mikeys work - Serviced, EGR blanking and 4x4 software upgrade, 3 flash indicators.

Chalky, pick the Xs up from Gaz, then stop off on the way home to switch the other bits on that you won't be able to live without Bodsys Brake Bible
Talking of snap decisions, I was quite happy with my manual 05 D3 with moon and back mileage, but accidentally saw a D4 HSE on Autotrader one morning. 2 days later, and a lot poorer, it was parked on my drive You only live once Previously:
2005 D3 2.7 TDV6 S

1992 90 200TDi Hard Top

Ian, what other bits ?
Gaz
Its a 57 plate XS in Tonga green with 94k miles
I've had it 5 years, FSH, it's an early XS so has no Nav & No Leather
It has Heated seats, screen, Xenons, LR spots, PTI, RAI, V8 disks,
10 months MOT, complete overhaul of front end suspension in Nov, drop links, new arms, track rods etc
New EPB shoes, Bell autos re-map,
And Greg, what ever did happen to alloys, Under bumper skirt, lamp guards ?
Have you spent funds in my Local Butchers, I went in earlier and he said he hadn't seen you for a while ?
Anyway, Its mint, but then I would say that because it's mine
Mr Bodsworth, would you like to comment on its condition ?
You have seen it many times ?Only dead fish go with the Flow !
