TD4 for me, whilst the SD4 does feel a little quicker when pushed hard, the trade off in fuel consumption IMHO is not worth it |

and yet you have an SD4 Auto which would give the worst MPG out them all

SD every time. Auto is excellent. You can select command shift and play with gearchanges all day if you wish.

My sister has the SD4 but I prefer the Si4 Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

naturally, you are a mud plugger, and sd4 autos are very good off road - considering they have no low range |

I have the SD4 Auto and think its great - yes the MPG is quite bad , ok its very bad ..... but i am willing to pretend that isn't an issue as i really enjoy the engine. |

I'm with Lightwater-Si4 for me I hate diesels! Why did Land Rover never offer a sensible petrol option to FL2 buyers in the uk?? |

I drove a FFRR with the 4.4 TDV8 on a LR experience day and its an unbelievable engine, very very quick on road and effortless off road. |

Recently upgraded to a SD4 auto from a TD4 manual - I find the SD4 quieter, more powerful, surprisingly better fuel economy and more relaxing. I don't think I will ever go "manual" again MY 09 GS manual in Lago Grey, Wood Co arm rest and side bumper strips - now sold.
