After some comments from members in the D3 forum, think it's gonna be a win for... the 90sw. D3 just seems too expensive to maintain. Is it a coincidence that when I type D3 and keep my finger on shift when I press 3, it comes up with £...? :):)

Thanks eightinavee. Good answer. I'm starting to think it's gonna be too expensive to maintain, spares, servicing etc. Shame. I absolutely love the look of them. Beautiful trucks! I deserve one too as I've been chugging around in a 96 Ford Maverick for the last 6 years. Time I spoilt myself...
