    I think it has more to do with the auto rather than anything else in the FL2. An auto helps hide a lot of deficiencies.

    Your probably right because its got a really good auto box in it. Very predictable and it doesn't really ever go searching for the right gear or change unexpectedly.

    400Nm@2000rpm of torque helps make up for a lack of low range too.

    That's only 40Nm less than the TDV6 in the Disco 3. Wow!

    But it is $25K cheaper and I don't think it is $25K less of a car.

    Regardless if you could all please stop talking about the FL2 as I wont see mine until February . They tell me it got built this month, just waiting for the boat trip over.
