MY16, so from about sept 15 onwards I think.
AlVolvo XC90 B5 Plus Dark
Gone - MY18 D5 HSE - Corris on 22's with Black Pack
Now gone - MY16 D4 SE Tech, Loire Blue, Almond Leather, Privacy, plus some other goodies.
Old - MY12 D4 SDV6 XS Auto - Ipanema Sand with Almond Leather - Plus other niceties, and D4.com sticker
Older - D3 TDV6 XS Auto - Lugano Teal with Almond Leather, 20" Stormers, Shiny Tailpipes, DVD/TV - and obligatory D3 sticker
Ancient - D3 TDV6 S - Tonga with Ebony, 20" Stormers, satnav & DVD
What year range were the adblue tanks fitted in the spare wheel space?
The question implies that there could be Adblue D4's with a tank somewhere other than in the spare wheel space, is this so?

No, only in the spare wheel area. Unless it’s DIY which would be doubtful.

Yes that’s right. A later 15 plate (registered right at the end of June).
It’s caught out two dealers doing services. They don’t expect it to have Adblue, don’t check, and don’t refill it.
CheersGary

It’s coz if the pooter doesn’t say it’s needed imminently then they don’t bother. If the car is under service plan then they hope someone else will pick up the tab.
