The V6 diesel in the D4 should be much better than the one that was available for the D3, and it has a modern robotized autobox that will perform much better than the antique model they had in the D3.

My parents own a Dutch 'Stripped' Disco3 Commercial with an autobox. It has air suspension, aircon, radio/cd player, cruise control and electric windows. No navi, there's a small shelf where the screen would be. Not all Dutch commercial D3's are stripped down versions. I don't know if the D4 was ever sold stripped down, but they are available as commercial cars. I did a quick search on trading websites and I didn't find any stripped down cars. Of course this doesn't mean there are none. D3s with a manual gearbox are pretty rare in The Netherlands and I've never seen a D4 with a manual, but then again I rarely take a good look at them when I see one. If your set on having a manual you'll probably have more luck finding one in Belgium. In case you want to look around on Dutch websites, we call our commercial cars ' grijs kenteken ' cars or just ' commercial '. Other then the international car trading sites people often use www.marktplaats.nl to advertise their cars.

Did a quick search and found the '4x4 Suspension Handbook' by Trenton McGee: http://books.google.nl/books/about/4x4_Suspension_Handbook.html?id=Aj08cY5wFoEC&redir_esc=y

If you keep it on the street, I wouldn't mod it extensively. Maybe tune up the turbo and fuelpump, and get a roofrack an ladder if you're going to use it for trips and vacations. When you're going to use it offroad: loose the front spoiler, get new tires and maybe a lift and sill protectors (like rocksliders)

You're right, don't know how i got it mixed up

Are you sure the car has low range? Because I know of DiscoII's that were sold without low range.
