United States d4 radio questions
Ok at present I am looking at a d4 but from the U.S., now I know the radio systems are different compared to the UK/Europe.
Can they be realigned? I know of I purchase something like a f150 then I need to totally replace the stereo, can the U.S. Model of the discovery be converted easily for the sat nav, radio etc to be functional in Europe?
V8 is a little smoother and can pick up its skirt a little quicker than the SDV6. High rev range performance is impressive... too fast for the car really.
The SDV6 is about perfect.. speed/torque and moderate mpg also it has the park heater (gets cold in Texas too y'all)
If the sticker price of comparable models is within a few grand I would go SDV6, if it is several grand then the difference in fuel cost creates an overall similar motoring cost.
In the US, it is a different proposition as I am enjoying the opportunity to affordably run the V8 - so a diesel wouldn't get a look in (anyroad, if there was a SDV6 available I would guess it would be $10000 more as the US has a bit of diesel love at the moment!)

...They think fuel is expensive now.. LOL
Now if you have some cash to spend on a magnaflow system, the V8 looks even more tempting!

Thanks for the insight
I'll have to look again at the sdv6 prices
So back to the radio of a U.S. Model, wonder if wiggs or bbs_spy knows what's needed to switch?
