Because even a poverty pack 2.7 can do that easy,don't ask me how i know.And thats anywhere,on the black top,up a sand dune...and on it goes.

They will get sick of it soon,we reign supreme

Was towing my camper trailer weighing around 1.5T recently.Had an ex D2 V8 owner who is awaiting a new deefer thats "on the ocean" at the moment in the passenger seat.Had the tranny in sport as reccomended for towing.We came up to a hilux towing a campertrailer up a steep hill at 60kmh.I floored it to show off and get around him,ex D2 V8 commented his D2 wouldnt go like that without the camper trailer

I keep the rear view camera on while towing our campervan... So I remember it's there

LTR/KW/NM/SPEED

_____|______MY10_____|_______MY11____|______MY12__ ___|______MY13_____
TDV6 | 2.7/140/440/6 | 2.7/140/440/6 | 2.7/140/440/6 | 3.0/155/520/8
SDV6*| 3.0/180/600/6 | 3.0/180/600/6 | 3.0/180/600/6 | 3.0/183/600/8

*Early SDV6 (my10/11) were badged as "TDV6 3.0"

My understanding is the 3.0ltr TDV6 and 8 speed were introduced together for MY13.

Well our friends over in the Defender section have been keeping themselves busy. In between discussing remedies for breaking diff's, cracked chassis, weak axles, how many bags of goat poo they can carry in a 110 or the need to replace their drive shafts with expensive double carbon units if they give their Defenders a very basic 40 mm suspension lift, that so many feel the need to do, they have come up with several versions of the Disco t-shirt.

Attached is one of the versions of the t-shirt that has brightened their otherwise dreary days discussing repeatedly at great length how many Defender owners bothered to wave back at them or not when last out driving.

Landy Andy he just needed the 5 speed manual and the high comp 4.6....would have been a lot cheaper than a new vehicle too.

Cheers
