United Kingdom 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Buckingham Blue

Whilst I mainly agree with Skot, if you plan to keep it a few years I'd still get a decent remap - if you still need more you will have done what you can and can then go and drive a TDV8.... if that's still missing the mark, you prob need to look elsewhere....

Or drive one and a petrol supercharged and see what you think.

I understand remapped it's more like a 3.6 on performance, but obviously still noisier.... 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

I'd suggest Option 2 from Monkey Jones' list - test drive a 2011 4.4 diesel and see what you think.

The 4.4 has awesome power, more than you'd ever really need in day to day use, prices around 18.5-25k so you could get one to suit your budget. And with the TFT dash and many other goodies, you'll have the familiar L322 experience, but a lot more modern feeling compared to your TD6.

. Cheers, Greg

England 2013 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Baltic Blue

I thought my tdv8 was a bit meh.... I think a remap would have done it wonders. Just didn't have the punch of a remapped td6. It was a lot more refined though. 19 L405 4.4 AB + Disco3 pick up + 800BHP Rothmans 911
