• For anyone thinking of selling....

• Bought my D5 SDv6 SE Anniversary in July 2019 for £49k. Just sold it to WBAC (with v low mileage but curbed alloys) for £46.5k.
  
  Cost me £2.5k for nearly 2 years D5 ownership, not too bad!!

• Aftermarket Roof Rails - Easy to fit and cheaper?

• I fitted OEM ones myself. Quite easy.
  
  If you got time, the trim bits you take off actually have the cutouts marked on them.
  
  You don't need to buy the LR ditch filler and rear trim panel IF you'r ...

• Can you fit roof bars without roof rails

• Bikes on the roof are difficult. It was easier with the D3/D4 where you could lower the bottom part of the tailgate and get a helper to stand on it.
  
  There are some options for a rear bike rack AND ...

• Can you fit roof bars without roof rails

• No, you will need the roof rails.
  
  The fittings are different to the old D3/D4 in that the Thule foot clamps around the rail rather than a T track system.
  
  The rails are a fairly simple self fit j ...

• Autel AP200

• Hi
  
  Anyone tried an Autel AP200 on their D5 yet? Did it provide any useful info?
  
  Used to have an IIDTool with my D3 and D4 but sold it when upgrading to D5. It didn't cover very much at that poin ...

• option pack confusion for MY21: Towing vs Advanced off-road?

• Why don't you phone a US dealer and inquire?
  
  What is/isn't available in the UK won't help you much in the US.

• Auto Park

• Russell is right, it's for parallel parking manoeuvres, hence the need to indicate so it knows if the road (on exit) or space (on entry) is on your left or right.

• That Deep Blue colour matches how I feel

• I just had a very similar accident, though not quite as bad as my B pillar undamaged.
  
  2 new doors, painting, moving all ancillaries across etc, came to £6000.

• 3rd row seats wont snap in when folded down

• I think thats normal, mine have been like that from day1.
  
  They don't have a clip holding them in place just behind row 2 like the D3/D4 have.
  
  I could be wrong though.......
