i would say the build quality is 100% better, i was very unimpressed with the previous model, and the interior is a lot softer and not so industrial, only way i can put it is more like a Range Rover and less like a Discovery, not that there is anything wrong with a Discovery smile

The Principal at my LR dealer told me that the vast % of new RRS Diesels he sold are the TDv6 3.0 model.

Much better! It's only when you look back at the older model you realise just how much. TDV8 would be my choice, not only for the noice/power but for the Adaptive Dynamics.

Pretty sure I'm right in saying HST won't be for a while. Next year's introduction is this: http://sport.media2010landrover.com

Got the new 3.0 RRS HSE. Marked improvement over the earlier models. The 3ltr V6 is awesome, v quiet on the inside, packs a great punch 2-3k rpm outside that it is a little wheezy. I chopped in my Disco 3 for thus car and it is light years better, in terms of ride, handling, comfort and style. The TDV8 would be a more interesting car, but with the Dynamic Response the V6 is the better car for the money. New 4.0 TDV8 rumoured for 2011MY, that would put some light between the current V6 & V8 TD's.
