Looking to change my P38 for a RR Sport.
Probably a 2007 model. Unsure about 2.7 or 3.6.
Any advice appreciated.
Cheers.

Firstly, Grab your favourite driving trousers....
Get yourself to a local fabric shop....
Measure out 2 lengths of fabric about yard and a half long each.....
Wrap into a circle and stich along the bottom and along the side to make a pouch....
Cut a hole into your trouser pockets and stich your newly formed pouch onto the bottom....
You now have the correct trousers with deep enough pockets for an early Sport.
Secondly, take another pair of trousers and cut holes in the pockets....these will be your second correct pair of trousers for an early Sport....
In all seriousness, got for the latest model you can afford, but be warned, they are built in such a way that DIY repairs are seldom possible, and any dealer repairs require a horrendous amount of labour...reports are you pretty much have to lift the body off to replace/remove anything!!
Only on a SundayLol saint has way too much time on his hands lol
Donp38, what do you mean - don't go for a RR sport at all or don't go for the 3.6?
Ps my P38 only averages 12 mpg where I live in the hills!
Got one. Love it and the Sport. Mine's an early one. 90,000 and going strong. 2.7's ok. As quick as old V8 4.6 P38 I had and 27mpg.
My mate said the same thing, which I didn't believe so we had a burn up off the lights (three times to make sure) I left him for dust every time and I didn't bother using sport mode on the box. So no, IMHO a 2.7 RRS isn't as fast as a 4.6 P38.
Allow this - I did a 2.7 Diesel Sport off the lights outside the Hunters Land Rover Dealer in Guildford in my bashed up, LPG powered 1993 3.9 Classic....the girlfriend said the drivers and the salemans face was a picture....Bet that was a bit embarrassing for your mate ! Lol

The Ford Lion V6 2.7 I think was around the 200bhp mark the 3.0 was about 212 I thinkWonder if the 3.0 td6 engine is far off the 2.7 ?
What BHP is the 2.7 running at ?
Ford/PSA Lion/AJ 200/207Bhp some 440Nm torque Should see off the 4.6 with the right driverThe Ford Lion V6 2.7 I think was around the 200bhp mark the 3.0 was about 212 I think
