2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Here's hoping that LR detune the 3.0V6................................ if, as is claimed, it performs nearly as well as the TDv8 and burns less fuel, our cars will become obsolete and not so special! 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

Even if LR do detune the 3.0, a tuner will restore the power

The 3.0 will replace the TDV8 - it's due to be stopped in a year or so

Although there may be a new TDV8 to replace it A D3 not in drag....

Not yet. Tbh, still having second thoughts. The knocking noise for me is the main reservation. DR2 or not, the current LR stance has peeved me somewhat and I'm still driving a plumbing pipe on wheels L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now!
