Mine gets used too but has been somewhat less than trouble free...

Ouch - just read your sig! That's quite a shopping list!

Thankfully much of the expensive stuff was covered by warranty but even so... 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Yes, there will always be slight differences. The RRS does have slightly firmer suspension - which many fit to their D3s. The condition of the suspension components will also have a great bearing on the ride and handling. Being heavy cars, they eat through bushes quickly.

I was under the impression (from reading a test) that the D4, at least in later versions, inherited the RRS's suspension anyway in order to improve the on-road manners slightly. Presumably done as LR recognised that much of their production output never leaves tarmac anyway. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

The D4 does have firmer suspension (Some have even changed the shocks and ARBs back). Don't know if it's the same as the RRS or different again though? Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK
