Default Range Rover TDV8

Chopping the Cayenne in for one. Should be here end of April beginning of May. Black Vogue SE with the supercharger grille & sidevents. Few other options as well

Always fancied the sport even before i got the Cayenne but i think having one i would always want its big brother.

I like to think of it as my way to saving the enviroment.

Not quite what I had in mind, but a little better I guess . The old Porker lasted about 2 months didn't it?

Got the Porsche end of october, to be honest i love it but really need to stop wasting money on petrol as it eats the stuff, need all the pennies i can get so i can finish the house. Dont have much of a change over figure so i cant complain.

M3 is away as well, didnt lose any money on it as i sold it to a friend for what i paid for it.

Time to get sensible

Youre expecting economy from a FI V8 diesel?

We arent talking about the Porsche here, there is another thread for that

But in answer to your question last time was about £93.

Will be about the same to fill up the RR as well, so doesnt make much of a difference only that instead of petrol it will be diesel.

I'm sure the hit you've taken in depreciation is significantly higher than the extra cost you wouldve put up with in fuel!

Either way its a good move - I'd have the Rolls Royce of 4x4's over the bland looking Cayenne anyday.

Its a car i most definatly wont be changing for a few years. Decided to have just one vehicle at the moment & it was a hard choice to either keep the Cayenne (450bhp of sheer power), get the RR or go for something conventional like the E63 AMG.

The RR ticked all the boxes.

Horses for courses i suppose.

Hopefully 2008 will bring me something a bit special that i can play with
