3.0 TDV6 - Official Performance Figures

I just used the "Build and Price" feature on the LR web site to print off a copy of the spec I've ordered, but looking at the official performance figures that show on the spec I'm not sure I've made the right engine choice.

I know it's a heavy car but I'd have hoped for a better top speed and acceleration. Still, at least the mpg looks a lot better than I'd expected Shocked

Got to be wrong, I definately got mine up to 30mph at the Gaydon meet at the weekend! Could be the speedo over reading I suppose. WINNER - 2009 ‘Just Doing What It’s Designed To Do’ Award

No offence mate, but you were probably going down a hill at the time.

I'm looking forward to racing against my 9 year old daughter on her bike, but do I need to run it in before I attempt to get the full 11.2 km/h out of it? Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.8::MG Montego Turbo::MGB GT::Rover Sterling::MGF::MG ZT 190+

I just checked out the SC as well to compare it with the 3.0 - the SC is better on acceleration (0-60 in 26.3 seconds), but the 3.0 actually betters the SC's top speed of 13mph.

Looks like I'll stick with the TDV6 then. Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.8::MG Montego Turbo::MGB GT::Rover Sterling::MGF::MG ZT 190+

It was probably on the back of a recovery truck when it recorded those figures! WINNER - 2009 ‘Just Doing What It’s Designed To Do’ Award

Forget about the published mpg figures for the MY10 TDV6, you'll never achieve them Evil or Very Mad . My previous 06 RRS was much better in that reagard with published figures being pretty close to real world consumption. SOMETIMES YOU'RE THE BUG AND SOMETIMES YOU'RE THE WINDSHIELD

Your previous RRS was probably also well run in which I've found often makes a big difference. WINNER - 2009 ‘Just Doing What It’s Designed To Do’ Award
