2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Stornoway Grey

TDV6 --> TDV8

Yes, I'm going to make the jump.

Was at my dealer friday and he had one in stock, could not resist, going to get it in 2-3 days.

Old one: Stornoway with alpaca leather
New one: Stornoway with alpaca leather
Boring eh? Well is going to be a stealth replacement
Only difference, apart from the TDV8 bits, are the wood inserts, previously light wood, now black oak.

And yes new one got the silver grill and side grills, but I'm going to replace them with my old ones.

Well yes, going to loose a bit of money, mine is only 16 month old, but what the heck it's only money

Can't wait to get it. '08 RRS TDV8
I converted my diesel RRS to run on an environmentally friendly mixture of caribou fat and baby seals oil

A little birdy told me there is a 4.something litre TDV8 diesel engine in development just for the US market. Apparently to compete with Audi and Mercedes who already (or just about to) sell large capacity diesel powered SUV's in the States ? RRS TDv8 HSE Rimini

The dealer I use down here claims the TDV8 is moving to 4.2ltr's, which would make sense if the 2.7 moves to 3.0 as most expect it to.
