Congratulations, hope you enjoy it, great car! HSE was certainly the top spec when I bought mine. Not sure what else they could put on it.

i thought it was the top one, they seem to be more simple spec levels with the Disco compared to the Rangie,they have SE and HSE i belive, the Rangie has bloody loads of them which is a bit more confusing.

Well done Tony, I've been following your decision process on Disco3!

Glad you took the plunge, I've had no problems with mine at all in 13K (also HSE) except a wire caught in the trim that was fusing the parking sensors, not really a proper fault, they're a lot more reliable than portrayed.

Best tow vehicle and most relaxing car I've ever owned.

Enjoy

Nick

PS Bloody amazing off-road, get on a course ASAP!

Nick,
It was some process eh, full of ups and downs.

We are well pleased with the car so far and it even surpasses our 'old' XC90, and that took some doing.

Ive done some offroad trainig through the job and it was great fun. Would love to do it in the Disco3 as i did it in the old 110'S and 90'S.

I'll be joining you Tony, soon as I can get to the dealer to collect it, hopefully a week on Sat.!!!! What a wind up, but I wasn't ever going to know if I could get the amazing deal I ended up with until the end of the quarter. On holiday now for a week.
I post on D3 forum as LT.
