For 2007, Europeans get a TDV8 that deviates from the standard '07 Range Rover Sport with a much more powerful turbodiesel V8 (thus the name).
GAYDON, England — Land Rover said its updated Range Rover Sport will go on sale in Europe in early November, priced from $67,000 for the 2.7-liter TDV6 model. But the big news, at least for European customers, is the arrival of the new TDV8 model, with 40 percent more power and torque than the six-cylinder variant.
The Range Rover Sport TDV8 made its world debut last week at the Paris auto show and will begin reaching European dealerships in January. Among the standard features: adaptive cruise control, navigation, voice recognition, electronic front seats, adaptive automatic transmission and dual alarm systems.
The TDV8 will be priced from just under $100,000. No word yet on whether Land Rover will bring the turbodiesel models to North America.
For 2007, the U.S.-spec Range Rover Sport comes with a choice of normally aspirated or supercharged gasoline V8s. Prices start at $77,240.
What this means to you: The "baby" Range Rover gets more grunt — but won't make it across the pond just yet.
Hello
I've just removed the GKN O/Drive from my Defender 110 CSW, its covered
approx.12k since being fitted and has had all recommended oil changes.
Transforms the drive on motorways and A-roads, etc.
Cost me £1000, sell for £550.
E-mail me if you require anymore info.
Thanks.
People Hi,
I would be extremely obliged if you could provide me with a rough figure of
how many miles a 3.9 V8 engine Discovery could make on a fuel tank.
A friend here in Greece gets around 200 miles (up to 230 occasionally) and I
think this is pretty low.
Take care

Can anyone give me some hints on an oil problem? I have a 1998 Disco
300TDI.
The symptoms are:
- Start up (engine cold), no problem
- after about half hour's drive (engine now reasonably warm) the oil light
comes on a tickover (c700-750 RPM)
- a short while later, I cannot get the oil light to...
Hello all,
I am dwelling on the question whether to purchase a new Disco with the
TDV6 engine. There seems to be little information on the reliability of
the car. Any experience to share would be appreciated. The model I am
looking at is the SE (French). The other car I am looking at is a...
