thanks, i was leaning towards the 4.4TDV8 the read about the twin turbo potential issue and the the petrol has ( can have) less issues. so start8ing to look at the 5.0. TBH, i dont really require the power, am no longer a speed freak, i enjoy the RR driving expereince and love the expereince i have had in the P38. I suppose i am looking for a better driving some expereince some extra power and refinement in the cabin. According to my maths, a 5.0 would cost an additional £800 per year in fuel- on the mileage i do thats looking at (10 around town and 18 on a run) compared to a 4.4TDV8 on (15 around town and 25 on a run)

But just not sure what may give me more of a hasslle free drive over the years from a 3.6 to 5.0 - seriously confused here, any pointers/steer in any direction.
None of them are likely to give you a hassle free drive, if that's what you want look at Toyota. The diesel is likely to do better that those figures you quote, my old P38 has a long term average of 24mpg, mates L322 runs at about 9.5 litres per 100Km, I would expect the TdV8 to do at least as well unless you cane it.
