Well Done, you have done the right thing...
You asked..
p.s. you wont regret it.
You know the feeling in the pit of your stomach shortly after you have made a fairly important decision like asking someone to marry you, or just putting an offer on a house that was accepted, or finding out you are going to be a parent after conception is confirmed?
Well I ordered my D4 TDV6 HSE today for delivery in July/Aug. Had that feeling after driving off from the dealer in my D3. As I have had the same thing happen on all of the major milestones in my life, I have taken it as a good omen.
Can someone reassure that I have done the right thing.

Well done but the worst is yet to come.
Thats the big wait, you know like when you waited for you first baby to come along.

						If you ordered it with the rear e-locker, you did the right thing. If you didn't then you did 90% of the right thing ;-)
RMP,
Yep, ordered with e-locker, Logic 7, adaptive headlights (hope not to get the issue with high beam others have had), and a couple of other minor add-ons. The wait will be painful, but I get to enjoy the D3 for a couple of more months before hand over to the dealer.
A least the D4 comes with items that I had to install myself in the D3, eg reversing camera, iPod integration, sat nav (well could have had this in the D3 at great expense).
The count down starts today.
Cheers

						Good work, I'm sure you'll enjoy the car. Hope to see you posting here with news!
Hi Brick..............yes you have made the right decision. I too went from a D3 to the D4. You will discover the beneficial changes as you drive it more. The biggest being the extra power & torque (assume it is the 3.0Lt), second.....how well they sit on the road.
There are other little things like.......if you want to put your window down an inch. It is alot easier to do with the D4.
Jumping from one straight into the other you will straight away notice how much quieter and smoother they are. Cornering is also better.
The list goes on. I haven't yet found a negative apart from the 19" rims that everyone is talking about. This doesn't really bother me. Just ordered some Pirelli ATR's and from the info I have so far, they are a great AT tyre.
Good luck mate, I'm sure it will take a while to wipe the smile off your face after your purchase.
Cameron, I did exactly the same thing last week - ordered a D4HSE in Stornoway / Almond with rear e-diff, high beam assist, adaptive headlights and premium leather; I have been told expect delivery early September!sigh.....! I will miss the D3 though - a brilliant car - so I have very high expectations of the new one!
I recon you've made the biggest mistake of your life
I feel so sorry for you that I'm prepared to offer my D3 06 Petrol SE as a trade. I've recenty put new tyres on it so lets call it an even trade eh!
