Driven the new 3.0 it's ok but does not have the grunt of the V8 , when pushing on or over taking at say 50 ish then you realise its not a V8 , and fuel returns are really not any better than the v8 at all as you constantly have your foot in to get it to go. 2014 5.0SC AB

Got 62 plate SD and am impressed although I really miss the V8. No noise and no real urge. A chipped V6 might be interesting... Do like all the new toys and BT music but ain't got nothing to hang on to going round corners. Some silly thought it a good idea to remove gear lever and replace with knob

Simon, put the SDV6 in Dynamic mode and sports box and then throw it around a few corners you will be surprised how well it handles and stiffens the vehicle up if you want more fun use the paddles to change gear too.. It will bring out the boy racer in you. Have fun. |

The sdv6 goes plenty well on its own in the 8 speed. Better than the 3 tdv6 Mike
