What a fantastic difference that engine makes to this car and I was trying to drive it gently....but now and again I just had to prod it gently

Zibrano trim is better than I thought with Ebony.

Colour is fantastic..........YES it was worth the wait

Tv is great...although no pic on the move, at least you can still listen to it.

Just dropped it off for a Venture Shield installation tomorrow morning and picking it up later on. Soon to have a Larini exhaust installed.

2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Stornoway Grey

Congratulations Josh. Glad you're pleased with it as mine will be much the same spec and colour - when it finally arrives. I'll be interested to hear what you think the Larini exhausts sound like when fitted on the TDV8.

MY08 TDV8

I also noticed that the sat nav links into the traffic broadcasts and warns you of any potential holdups ahead. Don't remember that being available before.

Also I found what I can only describe as a pouch fitted on the front edge of the drivers seat.

Yes pics will follow when I get a dry day so that I can fit the mirror covers. Might as well wait until I've done the whole job. It's going to look fantastic when the exhaust is done. May also confuse a few RRS owners as its wearing an 06 plate

Personally I have decided that I am not going to tune this ECU. There is more than enough performance in this engine That way I get to keep my warranty intact.

Some of you will ask is it better performance than my chipped TDV6 - YES YES YES It's a whole different car and I can't wait for it to loosen up. TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone
