| Mine is a 70 plate so very late SDV8. I don't get close to 86 litres but it may demand more fuel before it *really* needs it! |

I think it was 86 litres of diesel after they added the adblue tank
But did it drop again before the SDV8 engine was discontinued (in late 2020 I think?)
Or was 86 litres the low?
Many thanks ... |

I noticed this one - seems to have been for sale for a while?
It's a bit out of my league price wise but it is an interesting thing

This used to be two years but now seems to be down to one
I'm thinking about a 2.5 year old vehicle with 6 months manufacturers warranty left - so I guess the approved used kicks in for the last 6 ... |

I have a 66 plate SDV8 Vogue with a few extras. It's great - comfortable, good range, decent performance when desired
I am tempted by the SVA. Second hand (or third etc) of course. Sharper ha ... |
