Did they offer you a decent price as a trade-in lol? I'm also considering a new D4 TDV6 with rear locker as one of the options. Also worried about the limited range of 19" off road wheels/tyres. Not convinced I'm in the demographics for the new D5!

Actually I didn't bother asking for their stupid Redbook price, can't all the humming and harring, the pursed lips, the head shaking and the bull**** carsalesman love to come out with about "limited market etc etc.
I'd prefer to take my chances with some of the complete tossers that think they'll go for a quick bush bashing trip. I've got news for them.
I even had a bloke wanting to Bush bash a Prado I flogged turn up with kids and a dog......
I haven't bothered with the rear locker as a local independent who has a D3 doesn't reckon they're necessary.
I went for the D4 as the new "Discovery" (Salesman aren't allowed to say "D5" apparently....) looks a bit hair dresser type thing to me.

Yes I think the saying is "it looks a bit Evoque" which is synonymous for "hairdresser's car".

Saw a white Evoque yesterday north of Perth..... "EVOQATIVE" or some such nonsense.

I've put mine for sale up on Carsales, as we don't need two touring vehicles. I'm selling it with all the touring/camping gear included and all the spares as well. We will see what the real market price is soon enough, mine has almost every possible upgrade and accessory, so it will be interesting to see how people look at it compared to a untouched 110.

Iain,..have you a link to the ad?

After trawling through the ads on carsales.com.au I reckon I could list our Defender for about $8-10,000 more than I paid for it, which is nice to know, but it's not for sale.
