Can I have "vulture's rights" to all the parts strewn across the hillside when you fit and test one? Bloomin' eck Dunc, what are you planning on doing?????I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Well, its like this....., the D3 was supposed to be my "work" car for 4 years before I started using it off-road . It wont last that long so I figure I'll get a new D3 for work and then use the "jolly green giant" as my offroad toy, and sell my old defender...Duncan

I know the feeling. I keep geting told I should spend the modification budget ( as if I would do anything as stupid as "saving" for toys for the car) for the Disco3 on a Defender and keep the D3 for road, but where's the fun in that?I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Excellant, I see the design has advanced somewhat.
Air bags... Mmm, after they have gone off, I'll just cut them out with a stanley knife , or perhaps I can take the fuse out ... Even without air bags the D3 will be infinatly safer than my old DefenderDuncan

Can I be there for the inaugural roll please 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021
Dunc may not be so keen on any of us being there, but sure, as long as my "vulture's rights" aren't ignored. You can give me a hand with those lights from the roofrack. I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
