I mean...who on Earth takes a D4 onto a dirt road, hundreds of kilometres from the nearest dealer?
But the Delicia was pretty cool too.
So was the Devil’s Gullet... even when shrouded in bushfire smoke...

But New Zealand is boring; very un-Australian

Funnily enough...it went there and back. And now is situated a thousand kilometres to the north after a ferry ride and a long day in the car.
It’s my mother’s D4 and she has said that when she stops traveling and camper towing (she’s 75) then she won’t need it so we can have it. For nothing...
However, my Beloved and I think this might be a poisoned chalice. It’s a 2015 with 70,000 km on it and she’ll be punting around Oz for another five years. By that stage, LR will have dropped support for most of the electronics and software (as they did with their D2) and our nearest dealer is three hours away anyway. We suspect it’ll end up being parked in our shed till the end of time in excellent mechanical and physical condition but undrivable and uneconomic to repair due to a software or electronic gizmo failure...

You never know! The D2 people that convert to newer Discos tend to skip the LR3 and go to the LR4, citing better reliability. The aftermarket usually finds a way to keep these things on the road.

Where there’s life, there’s hope? Hopefully...
Honestly...to date it has been very reliable (except when driver error plays a part!) but some of the electronics have a mind of their own, local LR dealer support is little better than useless and JLR won’t share their software coding with licenced independent work shops...
