Disco 4 XS ordered today
Trading in my D3 HSE which has been the best car I have ever had and didn't put a foot wrong in the 2009 & 2010 winter snow.
Car ordered is XS in Ipamina Sand with Almond interior. Added a full sized spare and a reversing camera.
Due sometime in early March. Can't wait!
Cheers,
Martin

Thanks All.
This will be the first light coloured interior I have had. Let's hope it stands up to family life!

I'll be interested to hear how the light interior stands up. I always go for dark to hide the muck and scuffs but the gloom can be a bit overwhelming and I quite fancy going light next time.2016 D4 Landmark SDV6 (Euro6), Zanzibar (late run D4)

Our dog is a Springer and sheds mostly white hair (not that she is often in the car) so they won't show up so badly as they do on the black now: one short hop over the lower boot door to sit on a blanket and you would think she has been there for a week!

Does your springer leap onto the tail gate ok ?
I have only one worry about the new D4, whether one of our 3 labs (the short arsed one) can jump into the back ok ? She does manage to jump over similar high fences when chasing pheasant or rabbits though !

We have a RRS with ebony and a D4 with Almond. The Almond has amazed me how well it hides dirt better than the Ebony. And we are a very "dirty" family with cars full of kids, dogs, outdoor gear of every desription etc.
I would go so far as to say the light interiors actually suit dirt.Disco 4 TDV6HSE

Sadly not, she hates going into the car and has to be picked up about 6 feet away and lifted in. Once inside she is no trouble and doesn't seem at all stressed. She can jump out at the end of a journey no problem.

The colour and interior look great. Picking it (her?) up at 13:00 on Thursday - can't wait!
