Facelift, yes, sell quick, defiantly ;D, engine: 4.4 V8 305 bhp model, or 4.2 Supercharged depends which comes up first. Oh and Vogue SE spec :) One I'm eyeing up at the mo was lowered by a LR dealer dunno how that'll go with the air suspectsion (that never really worked like I hoped), big alloys, rear DVD's and big alloys. Only thing is Diesels sell a lot better, but low mileage is in it's favour.

Yep. In other words, exactly the least satisfying type of car you could drive - IMHO. ;)

I dunno thought, thee are some real quality sounding diesels out there now, Merc V6 diesels, not the 4 pots mind you other than a fantastic turbo noise when you lift off, that is great. BMW 335d sounds good too. Oh the best being a Range Rover TDV8  :y

In my opinion of course  :y

The RR TDv8 is quite a nippy chunk of machinery, given its dead weight.  It can lift up its kilt and take a run at it alongside some of the better ones, in my experience.

Its 0-100-0 times are quite impressive....  Go look.   ;)

if I would invest that sums of money I would prefer
something better than the classic buggy (vw) or audi ..

Porsche Cayenne would definitly be a better bet for speeding on normal roads..

Had an Ops Manager in my last job with a Q7, looked damn good, but he wanted to send it back a week later, both his children got car-sick in it whenever he went out with them in it!!

Changed it for a Touarag, no probs with kids, and IMO far better car................
