The 65 plate should be EU6 (AdBlue). For some unknown reason, but must be mapping related, the two EU6 MY16 D4's that I've owned are noticeably quicker than my previous MY14 & MY15 D4's.
Plus with the way pollution charging is going, see today's news, your future proofing as best you can with an EU6.  2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

Yes the newer one is listed as Adblue, so agree on the 'future proofing' part Iggy/Ieuan

I was a bit concerned about DEF when moving from MY15 to MY16. Apart from an updated "software patch" that LRA did whilst the D4 was in the office car park, so far so good.
I need to top up the AdBlue every c. 10k miles. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

Mine dealer struggled to get what I wanted for my car or another way, how much I needed to put into the deal. I blagged a 3rd year warranty on mine, and a few other things like first year tax and 1st service.

FWIW I prefer the second one. I think a bit of bling suits these more than the black pack. King of the typo.
MY11 D4 5.0 V8, Bournville, lots of goodies!
Now departed: '85 RR Vogue, '94 D1, '95 D1, '70 SIIA, '97 D1, '04 D2a. All V8, except for the SIIA - but that drank as much petrol anyway!

My wife did mention "Drug Dealer" car on a few occasions for the 1st one, she also prefers this 2nd one, especially the £3k lower price and newer model
New one is now off Autotrader 2.5hr drive tomorrow morning to get to them for 9am, then diving to Bracknell for work, then home, so will get a 300+ Mile run in it tomorrow (As long as test drive etc all goes well of course)
Trying not to get too excited as knowing me, things always go wrong!
Updates tomorrow of course Iggy/Ieuan

Good luck - I’m sure you will love it and it will be yours.
I even went as far as to remove the dark tints off all the rear windows when I got my Bourneville D4. It’s made the interior so much nicer and brighter, and the standard factory tints are absolutely fine by me.
Brother in law had a black X5M, black leather, Black dash, black head lining and super dark tints. It was awful - like looking inside a tomb in the rear view mirror!  King of the typo.
