United Kingdom 2013 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Autobiography Stornoway Grey

If the V8D is going to be better than the V6, then there's little risk in placing an order before a final spec is officially released.

Whilst V8D may deliver knockout performance, let's hope it doesn't deliver knockout noise!

One of the best things about TDV6 is the lack of NVH.

Based on the stunning TDV6, the V8D could be an absolute world beater.

If BMW were still in bed with LR, they could teach them all about nice quiet diesels. I still think the TDV6 is a bit tractory round the edges under load - although it's buckets better than the TD4 in Mrs Shmoogle's Freelander. That sounds like a no. 64 bus.

You aren't actually ordering the car now just reserving a place. I put my money down in June for the D3 which was launched in Nov and took delivery in January. I have a first slot on the Freelander, booked in December last year and will be ready November. The D3 I had to put a grand down but as the dealership know me haven't charged me for the Freelander. But it is always on the understanding that if the spec isn't what you want you can back out.

GO OUT AND BUY THIS WEEKS AUTOCAR - SIMPLE Exclamation

It does confirm on sale in November this year.

It does state the V8D sounds like a big V8 & thus sounds great Very Happy

It does say de-tuned & a lot more on tap - HELLO TURBOCHIPS & JE ENGINEERING Very Happy


As for the bigger RR - Autocar have been stating an impending facelift for the RR for some time , but I repeatedly asked this question to my dealer - yes you've guessed - no idea! So this is now also confirmed - new interior.
