Colin Wells, Range Rover Sport Product Manager.

Only other bits of new info from the sheets is:
Stornoway Grey to replace: Bonnatti Grey MY07.

Other interesting bits include the margin calculation for the dealers, as well as a wholesale price. I feel a group buy coming on guys,
(wonder how many units classes as wholesale buy!?).. hmm

Btw, info passed to me by another member on here, and permission obtained to leak this to the rrsport world.. hehe..

I know these prices were roughly what was expected but to me it's a big difference from a TDV6 with a gap in power that could be made quite small by having your car 'tweaked'.

Hey Kam

The Tyre Pressure monitor sys is £395

Excellent stuff KAM

From the link quote -

"And like the V8 supercharged derivative, Range Rover Sport’s highly effective Dynamic Response system is standard equipment on the TDV8. The system’s electronically controlled hydraulic actuators continually adjust Range Rover Sport’s roll stiffness in response to cornering forces, providing outstanding body control without the ride penalties associated with conventional roll bars.

The TDV8 shares its braking system with the Range Rover Sport Supercharged too, with four-piston Brembo front brake callipers and 360 mm front discs helping to achieve consistently excellent stopping power."

I am very - very interested in becoming a Deisel convert

I wonder how long diesel prices will remain low... my local Sainsbury's is down to 93.9p now! With the requisite £50 of Guinness that's 88.9p! All of a sudden it's 5 years ago....

Exactly, I'm not jumping to a TDV8 any time soon. My supercharged TDV6 is running like a dream with tons of performance on top and with better mpg than TDV8, when I'm careful.  TDV6 - gone

I like the look of the darker wood as well against the black leather.

I wonder if the new interior features such as clock in the instrument cluster and autoclose on the boot will filter into the existing RRS product line. I mean, these are being talked about in ref to the TDV8 only and not MY07 cars, right?
