• New SDV6

• With the recent announcement of the 225kW (305 BHP) SDV6 engine for the Discovery, does that mean the end of the Ingenium 6 cylinder engines? I had heard they were due for release in January 2019, bu ...

• Next Generation Pulsed Traction Control

• At one of the Discovery 5 pre-release off-road test drives for the press, one of Land Rover engineers talked about a new traction control system they were developing that basically pulsed the wheels i ...

• Timing on 2018 vs 2019 ?

• I've heard rumours that the TD6 is being upped from 258 to 300bhp for MY19. It's only a rumour though from a German dealership

• Big review in Practical Caravan

• Only 55%? I've gotten 70% resale on my D3 and D4 after 4 years, and my current D4.5 is on track to equal or maybe exceed that (won't sell until May 2018). That is selling privately with an extended w ...

• Last straw on the quality front

• Its ridiculous that the D5 should be having these issues. The underpinnings are RR, so well sorted, the engines are all carry-overs from other models, the interior is really de-specced RR, so there's ...

• Do you have Rear Diff Lock?

• Discovery 4 HSE and Discovery 5 HSE

• I'd be very interested to hear what you felt were the key differences between the 4 and the 5, and how great the improvements have been beyond the obvious cosmetic differences.
