280KW? That's 375bhp!! Almost worth chopping in your SC for that... I wonder how bad consumption would be? Got to be worse than current TDV6.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

This is going to be very interesting It will all come down to what mpg this thing can/will return?????? because i'm not going to chop in my S/C if :-

1. the price is too similar

2. and if its not quite got the edge on the s/c performance wise?

3. Will the sound be as "awsome" as the s/c ?

4. Diesel costs more..........

But ........... like all of us I have my fingers crossed that it will be cheaper than the s/c - have good performance - sound great & ultimately return 50mpg

Yeah, there's probably a few more Toyotas on the roads than RRSs (or probably even LRs)

Oh really? I was looking forward to paying the extra £40 and not ticking the box on the tax renewal form that says "Am I bothered?"
