Just a question.

For urban driving with driving to the country about once every week, which would be better?

Thanks.

How deep are your pockets?  Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

V8 Diesel because I hate spending time stood at the garage filling a petrol RR every few days, unbiased opinion as I have both petrol & diesel RR's 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17

Petrol every time. I'm absolutely sick of arriving at meetings stinking of Satan's urine. No matter how careful there's always a pool of diesel on the floor waiting to soak into the leather soles of shoes, get trodden into carpets yadda yadda. Diesel belongs in tractors.

Besides, around town there won't be a lot in it as far as consumption goes.

Well that's a load of bullocks
Don't you have a man servant to fill up your RR? 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17

You'd still get Diesel on the soles of your shoes when filling a Petrol anyway as the nozzles are right next to each other! 2002 4.6 Vogue SE - Alveston Red with Lightstone Leather
2012 Range Rover 5.0 SC Autobiography in Indus Silver with Jet/Ivory Interior
2012 Range Rover 4.4 TDV8 Autobiography in Baltic Blue with Sand Interior

Not at our local station Completely separate pumps.

And no man servant either sadly. He resigned saying it was too much work cleaning all those shoes.

More seriously though, I never had all these mess issues when I was running my petrol Discovery 3, and the driving feel was a lot nicer. I've had both diesel and petrol and the fact I'm looking to trade my TDV8 for a Supercharged is the best evidence I can provide. I just don't like diesel.

If you can afford to buy and fuel either, drive both then decide. Lucky you. If economics are a concern the L405 SC will be more expensive on fuel and insurance. 2019 D5 HSE Lux SDV6 Indus

gone 17 older variants of FFRR

petrol only because ull probs get DPF problems with that kind of driving: prepare yourself for fuel bills tho!

If economics didn't matter (i.e. the company pays for the fuel or by magic/luck I'd become very rich) I'd go for the SC, otherwise the SDV8 would probably make a bit more sense. If range is an issue (when I'd use it for my overland trip) then the SDV8 again  MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

SC the rest stinks

Ignore him he's a blooming German !  2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17

Angel is actually right, diesel exhaust and fuel stink to the high heavens. Petrol is not half as bad. So the Dutchie agrees with the German, how odd  MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!

Not where I live Adam. They have 3 pumps at our local station, Petrol, Diesel and Paraffin.
