Then sir will be wanting the FFRR.

With the push for efficiency and lower emissions, we're not going to see a v8 in the disco range, but I hope they have been tearing down the VAG 3.0 V6 to see how that ticks with a view to offering at least one smooth and gutsy engine to the Discovery family.
 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.

The majority of Disco owners will not benefit from a low range box....
The price difference should be significant enough to leave the extra hardware off making it a much more competitive vehicle to sell.


Price difference on the new RRS for TR2 and Low range was £300 so not a great cost/saving if it is left off or little point not specifying it as an option.

Interestingly my RRS averaged 42mpg lat weekend going to and from Skye and not holding back with the power. It is now almost as economical as my previous most economical car (Fiat Punto) which does 45-50 all the time. For a few MPG the RRS wins as the car of choice for a long drive.

We have two RRS at work one petrol one Diesel !

Both have been back on average at least once a month on recalls ? Are you affected by this ?
I don't want to veer off topic but we have had another re call this morning !

There's a constant thumping and banging comming from the rear loadspace which is very annoying !
It sounds like some one is bound and gagged in the boot !

Also neither of ours are economical ?

Sorry Off Topic

Nope has been absolutey fine. Happy with everything except infotainment which I cant' get my head around - the logic of the controls defeats me. No noises, no rattles, everything works, looks good.. Lights not a patch on the adaptive BiXenons of the Disco though - needs something else at speed in the dark. P38 was better with Halogens

Have you checked under the car for an asylum seeker?

No - it still does the hard work. Remains boringly reliable - been to Mitsubishi twice in 2 years for servicing and the only thing not included in the £300 3yr prepay service package so far are front pads!

The RRS is a toy for me to play with. Very Happy

Well the rrs should keep your sense of land rover "adventure" going with the amount of electronic trickery it has!

And before you all shout "it's a RRS" look closely, there are a few very subtle differences, the tailgate profiling, roof line etc, it is also actually slightly longer Thumbs Up



If you think back to the D3/4 and the older RRS, they shared a common chassis, and body floor pan, and certainly were built side by side, so it would make sense that the 'new' Discovery '5' would follow suit Whistle


RRS RS?...I will post a link to a thread about it Thumbs Up
