Hi, i have ordered SE TDV6 which has 210 hp. Should get it next week. I will let you know how it feels then. In Finland you have to pay +5.000€ for 255hp so it was natural choise for me. Will remap if not pleased with power.

United Kingdom 2016 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 Commercial Auto Barolo BlackDiscovery 4

I'd suggest the 255...

I have the 245 (10MY) and one of my colleagues has the 255 and both are fabulous vehicles but I would be wary about dropping down to a 210...

The Fun Prevention Officer had a 160 F2 and yet when we changed it, went for the 150 rather than spending a bit more for the 190 and it's gutless heap of manure... D4 Commercial - 65 Plate, 2016MY

D5 Commercial - Handed back when I left that job…
D4 Commercial (2014MY) - gone
D4 Commercial SDV6 - Baltic Blue (also gone)
D1 300TDi... 2" lift, HD bumpers (both), detachable tow hitch, 9,500lb winch, 235/85/16 muds and plenty of other toys (gone to make way for the next toy...)

Def get the 255' mine is the 210 and you really notice it at speeds above 60' it just runs out of puff. Had a loan 255 for a while, much better

IIRC you can get the 210 and there is a remap or ecu exchange someone on here does that will get it upto 255 as it uses the same bits does it not? FFRR Owner, very nearly became a D3 owner Smile

Engines are technically identical. Only difference in mapping.

I thought TDV6 meant turbo diesel and SDV6 meant sequential turbo i.e. two ?

garyemms1974 - she arrived today. 211 hp engine feels great but it has been snowing a lot today, so haven´t been able to drive very fast. First impressions are anyway very good - silent and powerful engine. I´m very happy with it Razz Discovery MY13 4 TDV6 SE

Never noticed an issue, or seen a thread on 190bhp D3's being underpowered Whistle

Get a 210 version and get it mapped. Having gone down this route I looked if there was any physical difference between the two variants i.e different turbo, manifold, injectors etc but there isn't. Had a 210 mapped by Pete Bell to about 280bhp, very pleasing to drive. I'm sure if you give Pete a call he will give you chapter and verse Thumbs Up Club Exped trailer
