I’ve never tried the 2.0. Though it’s what I’ve went for in my Velar. One thing with the 2.0 is it doesn’t seem to have the service warning issue like the 3.0.
The 2.0 is subject to the oil dilution issue isn't it?

Am I right in thinking that the Sport wouldn't have had the high output 240 until very recently?

D4 PX is on the floor all around tbh...the new model and diesel misgivings meant I only had back a few grand above MFGV, which tbh I was expecting from pre-haggle research. As this is my 6th motor off them I had some options thrown in and a decent discount above the standard offerings.
We were there for 3.5 hours and the showroom was absolutely packed throughout ...certainly no shortage of potential buyers.
I was at my dealers Thursday morning, they were flat out. The D5 in the showroom was the most visited car, which tbh surprised me.In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

So it's the usual give a bit with one hand and take it back with the other, having said that your dealer must be doing something right if you've used them for the last 6.
Good luck with the new one and it will be good to hear your views Discovery 4 HSE
