So why can you not get a Petrol D4 Dom ….

Not in the UK, no. Summat about homologation, emissions etc. The 5.0 was not seen as a big enough seller in the UK market.

Of course, if you had a word Mick......

MZ the 5.0 is available you know

You have 2 choices, buy on the continent OR buy armoured... FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

What is wrong with 5.0 Petrol RR? Prices are much lower now....

Yeah, so if I was buying new it'd be a D4. What with dogs, Tintent etc I could use the room. I looked at a South Africa spec D4 but by the time you're all done with taxes and import duty etc it costs more than a FFRR.

Not sure where else has the RHD variant in the EU though.....

I even called SVO about this. Still no. The bit I don't get is this though. If it's OK in S/C form for the FFRR and SSRR, why can't it be OK in naturally aspirated form in a D4?? Christ, why can't SVO just put a D4 body on a RRS 5.0 S/C chassis for me? How hard can it be? Same damn car underneath the posh frock.

Still think a Cayenne is the order of the day. If I can't have what I really want then it might as well be cheap. I NEED a big 4x4 for the towing, shooting, dogs etc. I WANT a petrol engine, 'cos I hate that other greasy . Too hard, brain hurts now.

Yeah, that left hooker's been around for 6 months or more. Just about 10k overpriced for the UK, basically the cost of conversion to RHD. Not cheap.

As for the Merc Graham, I kinda did the whole MB thing and it just doesn't float the boat for me any more. Although, I do really miss my E55 AMG estate.

Meh, 10 grand on a porker. It'll do. Probably buy a weekend toy as well. Downside to that is, having done it before, the toy ends up stuck in the garage and never comes out.

Dom.

Other big petrol 4x4s are about. Touareg, Audi Q7. Various american "beauties"...  Graham
