We need to change it for something more practical.
The FFRR is nice, but there so little room inside the boot compared to the D4. the second row seats don't fold down flat which limits the length of things that can go in the boot and the sloping tailgate reduces that even further.
the electric head rests are good - but ive only adjusted those once !
also the tow electric socket are under the bumper so I have to grovel in the muddy grass to connect them.
its very fast though Duncan

I love my TDV8 to bits , had it now the best part of three years it's power and quietness are just so impressive DD got a bit better MPG than I get but I have had 31 MPG (once)
I am doing the opposite and have got a shed of a D3 V8 cost me a fortune to get it on the road and faffing with DVLA on registration is just plain annoying. I have had a brief blast and it seems a tad faster off the line than the TDV8. 'Range Rovers don't do corners' I was told and that is dead right I am hoping the D3 does a lot better it looks as though it should. I am so impressed with the marque I cannot see me ever having a non LR product again. Just permagrin every time I drive it, you all know here just exactly what that means. Never had a car does that for me!
Maybe a L405 next.....please ........just don't like look of D5 (yet)D3 2.7 Zermatt silver (not another one)
D3 4.4 V8 Zambezi silver
D3 4.4 V8 Adriatic Blue
D3 2.7 (gone) Tonga Green
D3 4.4 V8 LHD Tonga Green
