Auto express MY16 review RRS

http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/land-rover/ra...015-review

I think they like it? Haven't seen that colour much before. I aren't seen the new Q7 but the old one was not very nice at all when I tried it and the X5 is imho a slightly different market to the RRS. MY16 3.0 SDV6 Autobiography in Aleutian silver, stealth pack and toys.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

>40mpg on the combined cycle............... in real life about 30mpg, it's really about time that LR went back to being honest with their theoretical calculations, in previous RRS's and FFRR's I could easily get the combined cycle numbers and on long trips exceed them but now not a hope in the 2 x evoques or my 2015MY RRS HSE Dynamic, although it is pretty good and easliy beats what I was getting both in the Evoques on my daily run into town on a long flat, almost straight A Road. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

United Kingdom 2012 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Orkney Grey

The quoted figures are the result of the Euro-required test methodology. One might argue that LR have set up the ECU and gearing to do as well as they can in the tests but they wouldn't be alone in doing that.

The new engine sounds good - over 300bhp sounds nice. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

All car manufacturers are banned by EU law form saying anything about mpg/emissions other than the figures garnered through the unrepresentative EU test cycle, so you cannot really blame JLR.

Vote to leave the EU, that's the way to do it..............oh I forgot, Scotland luuuurves the EU............... Rolling Eyes MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.
