Title: Discovery 3
Post by: joe90 on February 02, 2006, 22:26:19: Well, having handed my notice in at work just over a week ago now, i still got put on a course in Stafford. As usual company policy i was allowed a hire vehicle, and asked our transport manager to book me one ....... turned up for work 8.00 Tuesday morning only to be given the keys to a brand spanking new Disco 3 - which was mine for the next 24 hours.

Now when the vehicle was first released i wasnt a big fan, but 24 hours with this machine has converted me big time. Wow what a motor to drive.......

....... so anyone fancy trading a 300Tdi for a disco 3 ?

Post by: joe90 on February 03, 2006, 19:34:41: i think we could safely say supersize - looks like they could hold a full thermos flask, not just the cup!!!

Over the past week ive been spoilt with them, I drive a 300 Tdi, but in the past 10 days ive had a TDV6 and a Td5. - I feel a hole burning in my pocket, and a need to change the old oil burner!!!
