Default D2 is gone

Just wanted to post my thanks to all the help and support I got over the years for my D2. A series of issues led to it being time to move on, rear frame rust both sides, top end rebuild and possibly a camshaft, but the killer was significant rust under the left front fender running along the windshield seam.

Final trip Greenwood Forest tower, at 301800KM Taken by Stephen Hindley of our group now hanging on my wall.





The new 2015 LR4 SCV6 118000 KM,

I will note everyone at the dealership loved the D2, I had several comments about how nice it drove.

Hey Richard, it's been fun wheeling and chatting about all things D2-related over the past few years. Your knowledge will be dearly missed in this group.

Sad to see it go Richard, but I'm excited for your new adventures in the new truck, having owned an LR4 briefly, it was one of the best all around cars I've ever driven. But don't worry, Andrew and I will keep the D2 club going in the club

Get an IID tool. You won't regret it. I love my D2 V8. The 3.0LSCV6 engine, not so much, but the car is otherwise great.
