Done it ! Got one TDV8 Tonga Green with ebony black leather

Well the deed is done. Picked it up yesterday from Stratstone Perth.
Its a Feb 2007 56 plater in TDV8 Vogue Tonga Green with Ebony Black leather and a Land Rover towbar already fitted.
Started fitting bits already, supercharger grill & TDV8 rear badge went on within 2 minutes of getting back from the dealer, side vents are ordered. it originally had a private plate on it with something like "HOG" on the end. Don't know if I will succumb to another one, got two so far!

Overall a great purchase , bodywork is in very good nick, the alloys however have seen better days, but this I will sort in due course. Venture cam doesnt work even after a days charging up, its obviously knackered - I await a reply on that one, I am sure it will be sorted.

The power is awesome coming from a Disco2 TD5 as a towcar, with the twin axle 1900kg van on the back it still out accelerates what the Disco2 TD5 could muster solo and with better economy by a mile a gallon or so @ 28mpg solo!

Will get some pics up later, it feels great and equally as comfy as the 7 series.

Great colour, I loved my Tonga Green TD6 and if I had found one like yours would DEFINITELY have bought it when I was looking to swap to the TDV8, black interior with Tonga is stunning.

Can't wait to see some great pics of it.

I was going to make a sarcastic comment about you living in Scotland, and then thought better of it. Wink

Congratulations on the purchase. Thumbs Up

You know, that colour is really growing on me. Never was a lover of any greens (except original British Racing Green) but I do like that. Elegant is probably a nice word. Very nice indeed Sir.
