RR 4.4 Vogue SE, TDV8 Vogue SE, Supercharged

[dubbs]

Wondered if you chaps could offer some info on the below...

Full size Rangie, on an 06 plate.

What is the difference in equipment levels between a Vogue SE and a Supercharged?

Is an Autobiography just an opportunity for someone to have horrid coloured leather seats?

TDV8, Supercharged, 4.4 - assuming roughly the same purchase price, which would be the best bet based on circa 6k a year mileage? Lots of town driving in that too.

Where's the best place to look up trim, options, revisions (i.e when interior facelifted and the like)

Anyone have 0-60, 50-70, and MPG figures for the above?

Thanks in advance, read other posts so am getting an idea but this would close some gaps.

Any comments on servicing costs and/or known issues with the three above? Is any option desired more for tuning potential? i.e, does a tuned TDV8 suddenly becoming a barnstorming supercharged frightener?

They're the same.

Pretty much.

Financially the TDV8, no question.

Post-2007 model year have the revised interior (vents on top of dash), Terrain Response etc. There aren't really that many options.

If it has the free servicing, I think it's transferrable. The TDV8 is adequate as it is (saw not far off 140 on the clock today, and it never really feels lacking) - haven't driven a chipped one but JE's seems to be well regarded.
