Got to agree, having had the benefit of a day behind the wheel of a 405, the TDV6 is best described as adequate and that's it, no bloody sparkle:-( a vehicle of this calibre needs ooomph. The power delivery just feels wanting - not the effortless drive of the TDV8 |

L405 still to small for me (IMHO) on the front seats and i don't like cheap plastic.... |

I'd say the plastics in the L405 were generally a step forward - think how horrid the window switch panels, rear door ashtrays, sunglasses holder etc. are in the L322. |

I'm afraid I didn't like it one bit. I was sat lower, the console was higher, windows seemed smaller, the overall impression was of less cabin space. Put that together with black seats, black dash, black door cards, black roof lining, no sun roof and black glass it felt very oppressive - almost like travelling in a coffin |

The higher window line and console are a definite backwards step and I'd say the glass roof is a must-have. Certainly more car-like in the front. |

Its was the high centre console that always put me off the old sport.

Keep saying it but the SDV8's will be the ones to go for and can see when the prices do start coming down to reality terms then the SDV6 will drop more as a result due to the lower spec and lower power.
