Just to clarify , my 3.6 was a 2007 VSE and my 4.4 was 2011 VSE so i can only speak to those years. I have been in a 2010 3.6 that had a digital dash but it didnt have the large ( better brakes ) that both my VSEs had 2015 4.4 AB

my 3.6 2009 MY10 had adaptive suspension. I repaired it twice and nearly threw up when Duckworths quoted me for a replacement damper! __

That didn't quite go according to plan.

I’m sure you will have fun. Never been in one. I hear they are very nice.

Are the gearboxes reliable in them?, I've heard of a few people with the 3.6 and 2.7 Sports having trouble with the 6 speed, if the 8 speed is reliable and they don't blow turbos then the 4.4 must be pretty solid apart from the usual air suspension stuff. |

It has been said by a few that the 4.2 s/c is the most reliable variant weak spot could be gearbox if the fluid and filter hasn't been done similarly the diffs (rear especially needs oil doing regularly ) Enjoy but do change those fluids |

Yes the 6sp does give some issues with age etc etc but the 8sp appears to be more reliable sir |

I bought a 3.6 on a 59 plate in February. It’s the 2010 with the TFT dash and has adaptive dampers. There are cables exiting the tops of the struts which is how (I believe) you can tell. I’m not sure what they do but it’s a far superior ride to my TD6.

I purchased my 2010 3.6 Vogue in September this year and love it. £11k with FLRSH and 118K miles on her. Its been extremely well looked after with money thrown at it by the previous owners, the last one a Barrister..pulls lovely and like all FF's is a lovely place to be in. Not issues with it all - like a new car.
