Many thanks,
Ended up at Ozzie Park. Also added the RES to the order last week  Just could not be bothered chasing a suitable after market system (although will be looking to add some sort of screen(s) for the 3rd row - wanted intergration with speakers & control from the front as well. just more $$  will be holdiing on this car for a fair while now. D4 HSE with rear diff lock, RSE and rear end warmers. Adding bits is fun....getting out there is more

Hi gotaflat.
Congratulations. I too went from a Pajero (NM petrol with off-road suspension and afew other mods). Best decision I ever made. Now, after nearly 3 yrs, the Disco has been far more relaible than the Paj, it's capability and ride/handling, etc is in another class and it tows our camper trailer like a train where the Paj always struggled on hills.
With the 3.0 engine you've ordered, it will really 'blow you away'. Just get some good off-road tyres on it (assuming you plan some off-road trips) and a Mitchell Bros hitch (not quite as necessary for a D4, but still good) and you will be wondering why you even asked the question!
By the way, if you are going to use it off road, look at getting the dealer to fit 'proper' tyres before it's delivered. You'll get a rebate on the standard ones and you'll finish up not having to pay anywhere near as much for the AT tyres. I did that with both the Paj and the Disco and it worked very well.
Cheers,
