How much is this worth
Hi all,
Been looking at getting into D3 ownership for a while and whilst passing a dealer today was saw this.....
Was torn between a D4 or keeping my 110 and buying a cheaper D3 to keep it company.
This one has got 108k miles, full Land Rover service history and apart from some very minor marks in the paint is immaculate. The dealer wants 10k for it. How much is it worth?

Sold my 08GS with 102k on the clock for £8k a few months back. I left a lot of kit on it as well. So I’d say that one is a bit pricey.

D3 gone but never forgotten.

I saw that one but wasn’t seriously looking at the time.
Interior immaculate too...
Can’t work out whether the fact it’s a low tax vehicle and the full LR service history make it worth that little bit extra. Its still a 12/13 year old car. It’s an a local independent dealer. The have a 62 plate XS at the same place for 27k, which I can work out for myself is waaaay too much

Went back to drive this today. What a nice machine to drive. They’ve put a new air tank on it (literally today) and changed the front wishbones. Only thing I could fault on it was that it wandered a bit in the straight ahead position, any idea what that would be? Does it need to be set up again after having the wishbones off?
I have to say though that it is absolutely immaculate, the only thing I could find wrong with it is that one the alloys has been repainted a little, and there is a tiny tear in the map pocket on the back of the passenger seat, and that is it. Full LRSH. Still he wants 10995 for it......

Would that cause the slight wandering?
One other question I’ve thought of, I can see that it’s possible to blue tooth the phone to the car but is it possible to stream your music from your phone? Or was that too advanced for the time?

I wasn’t overly impressed with the standard stereo to be honest but it might just be i didn’t have chance to play with it. I guess plugging the phone into the aux socket wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world.
