2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey
TDv8 4.4l Tested in this weeks Autocar

Yes it's hit the streets, 30mpg is possible if you drive it like an old lady!

Their good comments
"Economy is now amazing"
"You will never know it's a diesel" (they said that of the 3.6 too!)
"Superb 8 speed auto"
"More Space in the rear"
"The driving position is still by far the best of any car"

Less Good
"Rear Access is not limo class"
"Load lip is higher than some"

I notice it know has the Jaguar style rising gear selector and press buttons for the TR, it has to have the Brembos of the 5.0litre to stop it it and somehow they have managed to make rear seat space bigger without increaseing the cars dimensions....................... to suit the folks in the Far east who prefer to be chauffeured in their Range Rovers. And according to Autocar it will ONLY cost you £69000! 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
