    2019 Discovery SDV6 HSE Lux Corris Grey

    Welcome Whippetman. I only got my D5 last week so we are in similar boats but welcome.

    I’ve been very impressed myself but you’ll find that there’s a lot of reading to do. It’s like being back at school. Laughing

    Hi and thanks for your kind message
    Fell for this for some instant gratification against all my common sense.
    I’ve been around with FL2, RRS 1 &2 DS and now this monkey.
    It’s ex LR vehicle with excellent spec so fingers crossed she will behave, 2.0L and 2 year warranty
    Hey ho here we go!

    2019 Discovery SDV6 HSE Lux Corris Grey

    It sounds lovely and its reassuring to have the two years warranty just in case. I love the Aintree green colour which I think particularly suits the D5 and the FFRR.

    Enjoy it and let me know what you think of the 2.0 and the ride quality if those are the 22 inch wheels and not the 20 hse ones. Anyway happy motoring.

    I have had mine sprayed Santorini Black to match in with the rest of my car. Looks awesome and a top job.

    Just get someone proper to do the work as I have heard of peeling. It's all in the prep. Where are you based?

    The nearest people I know who have done similar work on Disco 5's is Luton, probably a tad too far!

    2018 Discovery Si6 HSE Lux Santorini Black

    What about a vinyl wrap?
    Probably cheaper and more durable than painting it.
    Far less prone to the paint flaking, and alot more resistant too stone chips Thumbs Up

    Also no messy paint or overspray to worry about, and far easier to replace if damaged. Just peel off and redo it. Thumbs Up
