Bye Bye D3

Traded in the D3 on Thursday, got a brand new Santorini Black Defender, what a beast!

But still going to miss the D3, at least I got to go for a shot around the field (kinda sideways Whistle ) before we got rid of it!

D3, thou shalt be missed!

so exactly why was the D3 traded in for a Defender? Confused

here's betting we'll get to hear reports of 'we've made a mistake' and 'its noisy' and 'its uncomfortable' in the next few weeks Whistle

No no no, THIS is noisy!



The TDCi Defender is an awesome beast.

We got rid of the D3 because the lease was up, and the trade in value was more than the car was actually worth. Much cheaper to run a 110 for a few years and get a D4...
