Yes. Correct on both counts. 19's & spacers.
Photos look good... live in that area myself.....How wide are the spacers and where did you purchase them from?
I've yet to find out the size of the spacers. I bought her like this, so I'll get the wheels off & have a look soon.

Yes live in Rural parts of Staffs Moorlands (not far from Leek)
That would great if you do get round to taking the wheels off and finding out how wide the spacers are.. Thanks

We did all our own work on the Td5 & the 300, but I can't see us doing much on the D3......too many electronics. I bought myself a Hawkeye to read & clear codes on the Td5. That certainly paid for itself a few times over.
I'll be looking into finding a good independant garage, who knows the D3 inside out.2005 D3 TDV6 SE Manual

My money is on 30mm spacers given the stance of the wheels against the arch

I think a beanie D4 grill with same silver surround color as your D3 but matte black center like the D3 bumper corners would look 8)16 D4 Landmark
