hi again guys, i was planning on buying a v8 petrol sport but cant seem to find one under the approved used scheme so i will settle for a diesel. which in terms of reliability would be the best? the 3.0 or the 4.4?

i will be buying a 2015/16 with around 50k on the clock and i cover around 3k a year in it.

mpg doesnt bother me in the slightest.

anything to look out for with either engine?

Is that 3,000 miles a year of short journeys at slowish speeds? If so, avoid either diesel.

yes buddy as i have an impreza that i use aswell. my commute is 5 miles each way, thats why i was going for a 5.0 v8 but im not buying one without a warranty (private) and all the ones on the approved used scheme are out of my budget

If it's a Sport, then this forum might be better -

We're all about the grown up Range Rover

I'd agree though, the diesels don't like short journeys, so go looking for a petrol (mr move further away from work)

I can see your problem, but either of those diesels will cause you lots of grief used like that and petrol is the only viable answer. Sorry

thanks guys

there isnt alot of options for a petrol powered suv

jeep srt 6.4 v8
rr sport 5.0 or 3.0 supercharged
bmw x5m/ 50i
jag f-pace supercharged 3.0v6

ive just had a quick look on auto trader and there are a few rr sport 5.0 manufacturer approved hovering around the £40k mark so i just need them to drop to around £35k and im in

cheers guys

If you can hold off for a bit that would sound like the ideal answer

yeah there is no rush, i plan on going around europe in it for our honey-moon next april so a good 9-10 months to go yet

Fantastic (and congratulations! )
