Hi, i'm new to your forum and currently looking to buy an 07 plate 2.7 hse, it appears theres not much about the rrs you lot don't know so any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance for your time.

BUY ONE  MY10 3.0 TDV6 HSE, Zermatt Silver, 20" Diamond Turned Alloys, Factory Privacy Glass, Premium Leather, Contrast Stiching, Side Steps, Etc

Gone 2006 '56' 2.7 TDV6 HSE, Zermatt Silver, 20", Side Steps, Brembos, Dynamic Pack, Etc

VW Transporter, 19" Rims, T32 170 BHP, Lowered

They are relatively expensive to run. High fuel bills. High service costs. Relatively speaking. So be prepared. Also, Land Rover's reputation for build quality and reliability is not great. It's like marrying a hottie. She won't do the dishes and the ironing will be rubbish ..... but your mates will be well jealous. So buy one. I've been mad for flipping years, absolutely years, over the edge for yonks.

get a supercharged as the 2.7 is guttless and you will be gutted when your overtook by 2.0 cars and cant keep up  Current

Get away with you JPR. The supercharged won't be able to keep up with the fastest Astras and Focuses.

If you want a fast car, buy a fast saloon or hatchback - not a supercharged that does about 12 mpg.

Buy the 2.7 Scott7 - they are great. I've been mad for flipping years, absolutely years, over the edge for yonks.

You can make any car drive swiftly.....I have a TDV6, and it's plenty fast if you drive it right....

at the end of the day what im saying is that the 2.7 is too sluggish i should know i drove one for 3 years!!! Current

Yep, the 2.7 isn't fast but can be hustled reasonably well for a chunk of metal that weighs nearly 3t.

It's not the best driving car in this class, but it IS arguably the best all round package. It's actually pretty good value compared to the X5, ML, Cayenne opposition.

Buy one, you won't regret it

I have previously owned a 2.7 HSe for 2 years.
I covered approx. 130.000 completely hassle free kms with it .
The 2.7 is no rocket ship but it's such a rewarding drive in many other ways

The TDV6 is JUST about quick enough.

If you want something that will set your hair on fire then buy a bucket of petrol and a lighter  Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award

Tdv6 is fine , sure its not as quick as the V8 etc but its still quite rapid with your foot down , as i only get 19.6 mpg you can tell i dont take it easy ... lol

Wont be getting rid of mine untill the new one comes out so im more than happy with the V6 till the new baby shows.

Buy one , be happy !!!!
