Worth trying one as its a completely different experience with a deeper V8 Grumble/Noise rather than the screech of the Supercharger. (More American V8 kind of sound). I think other Petrol owners on here will vouch that the usable power is not a lot different from the SC. I think you would have to be high in the rev range to get the extra SC benefit. Low down I think its a great sound and very smooth as is the SC at low revs.

And lets not forget the non-supercharged AJV8 at 305bhp has quite a bit more power than the 268bhp TDV8 which also pulls like a train....(nearly a second faster to 62 than the TDV8 and only 1 second slower than the SC)

seems like most of the engines are capable of shifting the FF and are all priced pretty similarly, but theres something about having the top of the range model a bit like owning an AMG MB or an M-Power BMW, you're not always flooring it but its nice to know the power is there when and if you need it

Yes of course I just think the AJV8 is a bit of a forgotten hero. I love it but then I love traditional V8's

yup absolutely love a V8, my current car is also a V8. thought i'd ask how much would you say an S/C vogue is worth roughly 60-70k miles with FSH 05 (55).

I've driven both the 4.4 and the 4.2 supercharged and the mpg difference is noticeable
There isn't to many extras in a sc that I would use.
I would recommend a test drive before you write it off

Mine is a Vogue SE with RSE the SC has NOTHING extra other than a Supercharger....

i will be test driving both before i take the plunge, just need to find some local dealers with decent FF's to test drive.

Good plan I will be opening the Glasgow and Aberdeen branches soon....

When you have an FFRR, regardless of engine, you have top of the RANGE !  .
Experience is the only genuine knowledge, but as time passes, I have forgotten more than I can remember

^^^^^ Very true can't argue with that

Gazellio @ Prestige Cars
what sort of price difference would you expect between a sport and FF with theoretically the same spec,same mileage and year ?

For a 200(07) with 50k roughly the same for a Vogue VS HSE

opinions on this and what its realistically worth.

thanks

The 4.2 sc only started production in 2005
