Bit more practical with the kids and yeah for missus more than me.

09 HSE auto with 2.7 engine but looking at Evolve remap switch
Had a demonstrator for a day and i liked it - different but nice.

Very good turning circle which surprised me for a bigger vehicle although missus's 06 v50 Volvo T5 didn't seem any longer when we parked them next to each other. The height of the Disco is deceiving.

Silver with tints, 19" wheels and chrome side rails looks nice though.

I have a black m sport and would prefer a silver one because the black blends in too well with the lines of the car and with the bumper intakes where as on a silver you can really tell its an M sport easier!!! if that makes any sense!
