Yes, really, it appears there are a few of these in the UK built when the car was launched. Normal disco 4 with all the UK trimmings except with a normally aspirated 5l petrol used in the Range Rover biglaugh . I have a deposit on a used HSE version, fully loaded and with low mileage coming in at 6k less than an equivalent diesel.

Question is, does anyone have any experience of them, anything I should be worried about, apart from the usual lower fuel economy and potential issues come resale time?

All and any thoughts greatly appreciated. Am I nuts ? nuts

Thanks for all the feedback and good point on the "free fuel". What with that and the high spec of the car it does seem too good an opportunity to miss. looks like I am adding another petrol guzzler to the fleet! At least I won't have any of that smelly diesel stuff to worry about at the pumps! woohoo
