Catweasel, spot on I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Ah, see I have not seen one, they were still delivering the "old" Discovery 3 of a transporter when I was at the dealer this morning dropping the car off for yet another EPB issue!...
I'd just be worried that with 8 gears it would be constantly hunting up and down gears
The same was going through my mind as well...
Surely it would be a 4 over 4 box rather than a straight 8??If you aren't living life on the edge, you're taking up too much space!!

Surely it would be a 4 over 4 box rather than a straight 8??
Does that mean it will have two gear boxes stacked on top of each other then...? Surely that will make for a very large lump somewhere between the engine and the gear lever.
In other words - I have no idea what you mean... The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...

Club "yes, I too have had EPB failure..."
Club "yes, I too get mysterious bings and bongs..."

Maybe its a 4 speed box with overdrive, to give half gears, like a Sunbeam Alpine?
