What's so hard to understand? If the tdv6 just come with standard bumpers but the tdv8 had different bumpers or styling or different wheels etc etc then it would stand out that your in a tdv8. You know like when you have a hst people know its something different to the standard sport. |

And this is important why? The TDV8 is enjoyable because it's a TDV8, not because it looks different to a TDV6. What is it with people who need total strangers to know that they have car A rather than car B? Is it an ego thing? Seriously, I just don't understand it at all. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders 2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed |

If the M3 drove like an M3 even though it looked like a 318, would it be a problem?

The remapped TDV6 is better than the TDV6, the TDV8 is better than the TDV6, the remapped TDV8 is better than the remapped TDV6.

Well, I removed all the badges from my TDV8, I do not have the need to stand out.

More expensive in fuel and insurance yes. But don't believe those fuel comsumption figures Then factor in service costs which are also more expensive for the 3.6. I had the 2.7 but had it remapped by Pete at Bell auto's, site sponsor and it worked fine for me, a great improvement over the sluggish 2.7 standard power output, having said that, if i was going to use it for a towing vehicle, then i would of got the TDV8. Now i have the SDV6 this model is more than capable for doing everything which is a great compromise between the the V8 diesel and the V8 Supercharged. |
