theres plenty of info on here about it if you do a search. A good post is under 2007 tdv8 but I can't seem to add the web link to my post for some reason, so can't link it. Search for that for a starter.

I would check the history and get the one which has been looked after the best service history wise and you will stand the best chance of getting a semi reliable one!

Stew
Im assuming you are coming from
2.7 tdv6, which is a very good vehicle.

The 3.6 tdv8 is a bit like a D4 SDV6 but better in terms of driver seat power/torque.

The basic RRV has about (not exactly) the same features as a D3/4 HSE.

The post 2006 RRV was probably neglected by ford as it was a heavily BMW influenced design. The 3.6 & 4.4 tdv8 have a combination of ford & BMW influence.

Good luck. ______________________________
