We also have a DB9 which gets driven not polished and our RRS doesn’t feel ridiculously slow even by comparison with that – just higher. Also we were recently lent an SC by our dealer for 3 days while a trim issue was sorted on our car. Apart from the sound track, which is much better of course than the diesel, neither I nor anyone else who had a go in the SC thought it was worth the price difference and during that 3 days, driving as I usually do, I got 9mpg rather than 23mpg from my car.


WOW a TDV6 as good as a DB9 Shocked

and only 9mpg from a S/C ? I thought I was struggling with approx 12mpg ( I blast about & its all in local town traffic on short runs with a cold engine )

The SOUNDTRACK is well worth the extra dosh in fuel costs - but I must admit the overall price differentiation is ...... well..... errrr ..... hhmmm...... simply too much Sad

I will def be reconsidering my options next time round Confused

To be fair I did drive the SC a bit more like I'd just stolen it because I enjoyed the noise so much.

DB9 v RRS TDV6 - there is a slight difference as you might reasonably expect!! 11 XFR

08 RRS TDV8 HSE with the good bits taken off the first RRS

05 RR Sport TDV6 HSE Rimini Red (Rimini Brown at events), Stormer wheels (original 19's for events), PTI, towpack. TV tuner (now driven by an employee)

1923 Ford Model T (serious ground clearance)


FFRR TDV8 Vogue my07 (wife won't let me use it in case I go to Salisbury with VA in it)

plus some other bits n' pieces
