| I don't see the appeal of the first one, to each their own but I think it looks awful, the second one you linked looks a much nicer car. |

You could bag yourself a nice Supercharged with much lower miles for that money  , I was going to spend about £16k on a TDV8 but have decided to go petrol instead. |

| They make a great sound too!!, I occasionally look at the E63 s with the V8 bi turbos online, when prices fall a bit more I'd consider one. |

Someone called mine a 'Lesbian RangeRover' the other day.
I've no idea how he came by that description 
Has it got off road tyres on it?. |

I've had two FFRRs and an SL55 AMG in the past so I'm not much of an MPG worrier, the SL would do about 15 around town and the petrol RR about 16/17.
I would prefer a diesel but they seem to be more ... |

I'm in a pretty similar position to you at the moment, had a FFRR previously and do about 9k miles per Year.
The FFRR does have a nicer interior IMO but the Sport handles a fair bit better, I was thi ... |

After my previous thread I've pretty much decided on a Supercharged as the diesels seem more fault prone.
Just wondered if any Supercharged owners have had engine issues?, as all I've read seems to b ... |

In honesty a TDV8 would be my first choice if I could get one with a decent warranty, but with a £16k budget I'm not going to be able to source an LR approved used!.
If I could get one from a garage ... |

I don't drive slowly but I'm not always zooming around either, I've sort of gone off quick cars now, sticking to 2 wheels for going fast and having fun.
The TD6 in the FFRR I had was too slow though. |

I've driven a TDV6 one before and didn't think it was that slow, if I got one I think I'd take it to JE Engineering for a remap though.
I'm still really tempted by the TDV8 but the horror stories of ... |
