So the early D4 3.0's were designated TDV6 just as the 2.7's were. Now, as well as the extra power, you also get the new S DV6 badge.

The earlier D4 3.0Lt had a '3.0 TD V6' badge at the rear whereas the 2.7Lt just had 'TD V6'. To me it made it alot easier to establish whether it was a 3.0Lt or a 2.7Lt. Why LR changed it, I don't know.
I still like the 3.0Lt badge. Looks more ballsy.
Cheers, Craig

There not being any 2.7s in the MY11 range for the EU might have something to do with it, along with the TDV6 being a low power engine compared with the SDV6 excepting for the MY10 3.0 TDV6.
