United Kingdom 2005 Range Rover Vogue Td6 Bonatti Grey

If its up and down motorways all day then yes it can but IMO the 2.7 seems bad in the LR's and god knows why. Its fine in the pugs and citroens with it fitted, and most jags IIRC.

Gaz i had a D4 HSE MY10 for 3/4months going all over the country in it and some lovely remote sites in literally the middle of a field. It cost more for the excess mileage on it than it did for the rental from SHB!
Then i had a D4 XS MY11 when someone shunted the rangey for 2 weeks.
Then another XS from another small shunt which took ages as they gave me an RRS initially(TDV8) that had 3 LRA callouts and then munched its engine.
Then the last one was a MY12/13 late last year when the rangey was waiting for work approval and then work being done after another shunt. That was an XS as well and the newer box in it felt loads better although the other ones with 6speed were all SDV6 as well they still shifted but the 8 speed was nice other than the stupid nob for it Smile

And then there has been plenty of use on sites in some S models that were battered just around the sites/locations so didnt even get beyond 3rd gear most of the time but spending enough time sat in them 'working' wasnt easy Wink FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Well you live and learn there was me thinking you were thundering around in an old Citroen estate while you wait to to resuscitate the dead Range but it seems you have been living it up in the D4 Club Thumbs Up

PS: Why all the shunts?

Pretty good going Smile

Commercials often taken a battering more than a 110/130 commercial IME Smile

Sorry Gaz, just while the FF was under/waiting for repair due to numpties and once or twice for work Smile

The current stable is
resting FF
QashQai +2
Xantia TD Hatch
C5 HDi90 Hatch

Looking to get 1-3 Xm's soon and all 2.5tds as well at which point the Xantia and C5 will be moved on and the QQ goes this weekend. Also had a fabia for a whole week of ownership before it was sold on Smile

Quite liking the buying of older cars and getting them good enough to last a few more years now Smile
Oh and had the V6 Xantia but it was limited to private road use before being broken apart in 1/2 a day Smile
Loving a trade policy! get up in the morning and now have to think which car i can take other than the FF Sad FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

This one looks good but i would flush the box on it as the towbar says to me its been used for heavier loads than most would do Smile FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

True but that's just a small selection if what's out there Smile

Just have to be hunted out Smile sounds like you got a good one, though that lovely blue has always appealed to me though Smile FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Well it sounds like a good one so I'll keep my fingers crossed for you Smile

I'm hoping one day if business carries on growing to make a tdv8 van from a 2010/11 model for work use Smile FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's
