HI there,
Has this been sold. Would this be suitable to a first time LR3 owner?
I need it for mainly local journeys of 10 to 20 miles, but the odd trip to Devon 400 mile round trip.

Hi Pidsley,
I've replied to your pm! This was my first D3 and its perfect for a new D3 owner, but I would say that of course
You're in the right place if you want first time buyer advice and support while you enjoy your journey into the joys of D3 ownership
Cheers

Is the mpg significantly better. I’ll be towing a touring maybe twice a year. Others will be mainly Road driving. With some London traffic.

Bumping this back to the top as my D3 is still for sale (I stopped trying over Xmas due to various commitments). It now needs a nice new home, so I'm open to offers here and am going to market it elsewhere too.
I'll get a new MOT as its due in Feb.
Cheers
