Got mine recently

So there I was standing in the dealers looking at Discos, my wife says "it's bigger than I thought, probably to big" so we go look at RRsports and similar comment. Then we look at Freelanders and Im not impressed then the dealer says he has an Evoque out back, ordered and delivered for a customer, customer turns up finds out its deisel when he ordered petrol and tells dealer he doesnt want it. So thats how I became the owner of a black SD4 coupe Dynamic. Saw it Tuesday, drove off the forecourt Saturday.

I like the car but only got to drive it on Sunday so early days, now stuck working in Durban for 3 weeks, can't wait to get home and drive it some more, oh and see the wife and dogs....

RE: Got mine recently

Sounds like you were in the right place at the right time barnsy, well done.

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

Almost as bad as the guy that ordered a 3 door only to have a 5 door show up!
