Bye bye FFRR hello D4* time to move on-goodbye D4*
As some of you know I recently made the decision to sell my 4.4tdv8 range rover and return to a discovery due to an upcoming new arrival. Well I have done the deal today and swapped for a nara bronze D4 xs with only 60k. As expected it drives lovely and although down on power compared to the rr I must admit I am very happy to be back in a d4 . Let the modifications begin
