There is a gearbox software update for the 3.6 which may help with the gearbox. Don’t reset the adaptations though as this can cause more harm than good!!

Oil and filter will also help.

bournville is a great colour.  There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Had a good hard stare and squint at the paintwork above the TDV8 badge today. Could just about make out the VOGUE letters, centred above the TDV8. So that more or less confirms it is a VOGUE, with SE specifications.

The car has been sold twice on this forum, and represented as:

Weird isn’t it.

You can have a V with all the VSE bits and it’s still a V.

TBH I don’t think it makes any difference, never been less than happy with a Vogue.  There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Makes sense - the Vogue had the TDV8 badge centered, but the VSE was right aligned,

Agree that it makes no difference really - it’s just a pack of options bundled together.

Anyone need an 'S' and an 'E'  .
