D3 buyers advice

Morning to you all,

We’re currently starting to look for a D3, 7 seats.

Looking to spend up to £10k.

I’m replacing a Audi A6 3.0tdi Quattro avant with the D3, so coming from the Audi with all the bells and whistles.


Is there a buyers guide, or information you can advise as what to look for and what would be advise to replace if it isn’t already.

Many thanks.

Why are you swapping from the Audi ? I was thinking of going the opposite way from my D3

Wanting a change from the Audi. Plus needing the use of 7 seats every now and again.

The Audi is a great car/ cruiser, and being a Le Mans it has everything on it.

I spent a large amount on the Audi when I bought it. Replacing the engine (intake manifold failure, taking two pistons out) total bill was just over £5k, engine, turbo rebuild, new intakes and all fluids.

Fuel isn't an issue, otherwise I'd have bought a 2.0tdi rather than the 3.0 V6, and driving fast isn't the purpose of the discovery.

Only picture i have of the Audi at the minute, it's currently dusted in snow.

It's a LeMans black edition, so no chrome, full black leather interiors (s line) and black carpets and head lining.
