Slimer - now that you know the (small) number of issues with the Disco3 (eg the FBH) why not ask the dealer to confirm in writing that these will be working & fixed on your car - should be interesting to hear their reaction!!
TDV6 S same as you but I've added on the full Nav Screen package so I assume (hope!) I'll have the Settings menu as on the SE/HSE
Ecosse,
Good idea, buy the looks of things it's only vehicles from the first batch or so that are suffering any prolonged problem with ongoing issues (with the exception of the FBH!), but it wouldn't hurt to clarify everything.
My order won't be going in until Monday 28th (once the haggling has finshed) so if someone can come up with a consise but conclusive list of issues I'll email it to the dealer tomorrow.
Slimer - the "Issues" section has a fairly comprehensive list, which could be bullet pointed for the dealer!!

But hey... please remember that we all LOVE this car and really only want it to be the best.

Right then, a result
I have ordered the 25 stickers according to this list:
The stickers have worked out to be £3 each, plus 40p per set for postage and an envelope. (i.e. 3 stickers is £9.40 as shown above).
Payment methods I will sort out with everyone individually, but I can take cheques and PayPal, or bartering Also happy to do cash and collection of the stickers if anyone's passing through or visiting Cambridge, but I can't take cash through the post.
Hope to have these out to you within the week, bet you can't wait 8) I know I can't

Woo hoo!
They've Arrived 8)
The three on top are Neil's outside type, the 3 underneath are the normal inside type (that's why they're backwards..)
I am just PM'ing everyone whose they are to get payment sorted, and then I can get them out. They're very slightly too big to get in an A4 envelope, so will be bodging a postage method!
But they are very 8)

Simon,
From what I gather from other 'S' owners the Settings Menu on this model (except mine it seems).
I would not have thought the Nav would effect whether the Settings are there or not. The options are outside of what are used for the Sat Nav configuration - this is all done on the Sat Nav its self.
Let me know in any case,
Cheers,

I didnt want to spoil the aerodynamics of the vehicle.....and after a while, they might get a bit grubby under the edges.
(I suspect that being on a clear background, the stickers will be visible in silhouette)

Hi
I think the outside ones should hold up ok as they are no different to signwrighting on a panel van and if they do wear out it will give me an excuse to change the collur and use one of the others
cant wait

The Disco's bottom is a real dirt magnet !!
Better inside to me.
I will mount mine in the wiper sweep area (if not too distracting) in order to keep the badge on honour visible to all that follow in my veritable wake !

Ta Neil, they do look really good, haven't put my spare orange one up in my room window yet, but the typeface and colours seem to have come out perfectly.. hope everyone will be happy with them
If anyone hasn't had a PM from me about payment, let me know ASAP.
Looking forward to seeing D3's out and about with stickers on
