Spec list and trim levels
 

I am currently looking for a D3. Is there anywhere online which will give me a list of all options on spec available? Comfort seats etc

Also, what are the "must have" options in your opinion?

You need a price list as a few things do vary from year to year.

I could make a sweeping statement about x,y and z being so important that you should never buy a D3 without them, but it would be my preference, not yours.

A lot of it centers around what you intend to do with it. If you do lots and lots of motorway driving, then comfort or sports seats would be better, along with adaptive cruise. Heated seats are nice, and I like a sunroof to enjoy some extra light on the long journeys. TV comes in handy if you're often parked up, early for a client, or at the motorway services and fancy a bit of light entertainment.

Of course, we could skip all the 'need' and whizz along to the 'want' section and theres quite a lot to go at.

No, I understand - I was just after opinions rather than being "told" what to have

The list you have provided is exactly what I was after, thanks. Much appreciated.
