Driving past a local car yard today, saw a silver D3 in the yard, so I go in and have a look. ARB bullbar with TMax electric winch, long range fuel tank, OL roof rack, OL swing out rear wheel carrier, 5 seats, leather interior, TDV6. 45,000 k's, bloke said the previous owner used it for a lap around Oz. Price $46,000.

I'm interested in trading the D2 in on it. Any issues to look at re. the D3 and that vintage? Any help appreciated.

Cheers

If its got air suspension, have a look on top of the rear diff to see if there's a diff lock actuator motor & wiring harness.

You don't say what model it is or what year.

With 5 seats it may be an S, if so, may be coils without Terrain Response.

If so, Decision Time. Don't want to start an argument, but me, I would not be without air suspension and TR.

Is is still under warranty? Does it have a full service history? When mine gets to 3 years, I will definately be getting extended warranty if I can.

Manufacture date was 06/06. Lack of terrain response would put me off too. Don't recall seeing the terrain response button in the console. Will go back and have a look.
