 After 45,000 miles driving in the D3 and around 400,000 miles in all other vehicles without a smash, it happened yesterday.
Turning round in a small Yorkshire back street, I carefully reversed on my mirrors as usual, no cars in sight, but in the blind spot of the rear pillar there was a wooden telegraph pole waiting to pounce.
SMAASH!!!
Got out to see what major damage was caused by this almighty smash, but thanks to rear lamp guard, I eneded up with a ruined guard and a smashed lense.
Still gonna cost a couple of hundred quid but no body damage and the lamp guard although only plastic saved from more damage.
Will all be back together for Tong on Sunday  Wish I had a D3, but at least I now have a Landie - YIPEE

Gareth - it's all in the timing 
To be fair, you did put the other link in too "To finish first, one first has to finish ...."

Cheers to you both - £135 + VAT from stealers, got one ordered in, but to save money, going to cancel and bid. Wish I had a D3, but at least I now have a Landie - YIPEE

See if they will take an offer for the Leicester one. I could collect and bring to Tong  "To finish first, one first has to finish ...."
