Jay_Russell Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 i absolutley adore my d3 05 plate. i bought it with 100k on the clock and full service history. ive had it three years and put 50k on it and apart from servicing ive had to replace a wheel bearing and thats it. fitted with goodyear dura tac tyres and its simply incredible. far far better than my hilux and l200 pick up in comfort and ability in the soft stuff. i could replacd it with soething much newer but nah im keeping it ! i think the people who have serious money pit issues in most part have bought one which hasnt been looked after in the past.

Ok or to much hassle? I know some of the older rangies are fraught with problems wonders if these were the same?
