FBH is a £1000 ish extra on an HSE. Shocked

But as they told me you can remotely start the car with a phone app & set the cabin temperature you want.

You could be right Jim, I just assumed. Not clear though.

So the only way you get an FBH is if you specify the optional timed climate pack Thumbs Up

There is only one option available as I described above.

I have just checked the RRS2 section and it has the same description and price.

I know that the RRS2 one is definitely NOT a FBH, it caused a lot of fuss on the RRS forum when they first came out.

United Kingdom 2007 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Auto Tonga GreenDiscovery 3

Drove D5 today. I have one on order which is due end of March hopefully.

Coming from a 10 year old D3 with 151k on the clock, it was always going to feel very different. And it didn't disappoint.

I've gone for 2.0 which drove very well. Coming from a 2.7 to the 240PS 2.0 in a lighter car made it feel lively.

Love the car although rear end styling is clumsy...

Sitting next to D3s and D4s made me think that they are going to be sought after in the next few years. Styling is great and they are more robust work horses than the new D5. Second hand prices will go "Defender" on us soon as demand outstrips supply in my view...

Given the news about the 'future' of diesel vehicles, I seriously wonder if I should even be considering spending £60k on a new D5 TD6 ? Confused

The next car I get - I doubt which will be a D5 - will have to have some hybrid tech. or such like. A guy who saw me get out of my Discovery MY16 kept muttering 'dinosaur car' over and over again as he pushed his kids round the local supermarket - but only when near me... WTF Shocked - its Euro6 compliant and probably cleaner than whatever he drove.... Censored Banging Head Thud

Well, sat in the dealers for 3 hours playing around building the S spec car and after all that the original car is now coming, a switch of finance company, £500 more for my car, and an extra £500 on the deposit and the deal looks more appealing, its brought it down to the same monthly payment as the S spec deal.

So everything back on track, everything signed and sealed just waiting for delivery. I should at worst have it for 25/3/17.

My one was ordered months ago. Some cars have arrived well ahead of original delivery schedules and some have been delayed due to the stolen engines.

My one still builds the 10/3/17 and wil be here before the tax hike.
