Santorini HSE arriving on Friday!
Hi All,
Pick up my new Disco 4 HSE on Friday from the guys at LPR on Friday - told you I'd buy a car eventually James/Matthew...
Great service from LPR who actually bought my RRS (2.7TDI) from me a couple of years ago.
I've had a fantastic 2.5 years in an Audi RS4 avant which will be sorely missed but the time has come for more room and something a bit more comfortable for the family. I was tempted by another RR Sport but they've gone a little bit too bling for my liking.....also nearly went for a 4.4 TDV8FFRR but was concerned that the new model would make the current one look and feel it's age very quickly....so that left the Disco 4, a vehicle that I've always really liked and can now justify to the my wife as we've recently moved 'out to the sticks' !
Spec is fairly standard:
Santorini Black
Privacy
Gloss Black Alloys
Full size Spare
It's currently sitting in the showroom at LPR and looks great under the lights - I know it will be a to clean but I personally think it's going to look great when filthy too
James was mortified when I said I'd like to take it greenlaning.....
The RRS forum was always very helpful and friendly and I look forward to being part of this one. Will get some photos up next weekend hopefully.
Cheers
JT

So picked it up on Friday and loving it! Feels much better than my old RRS did and fingers crossed will prove more reliable....
Will post up some pics very soon.
