When I was purchasing I was confused by the term Dynamic. I wanted the Dynamic handling pack, which was what it was called back then in the write ups. I did not realise that Dynamic was all about paint and look features until a dealer pointed out that the SDV8 came with all the performance features standard. So for me it was about getting the features I wanted didn't care about colour and I had already worked out that many of the features in 2016 did not work that well and weren't worth the asking price.
My bonus was the 2016 SVD 8 does not require add blue , I have purchased some 20 inch wheels , previous model RRS , and run Coopers on them. Current fuel but is 6 litres per 100 less than my previous diesel R50 and this is a good thing.
Best features:
Sound system is best I've owned, I have the Mid range. Gearbox , changes like hot knife through butter , and performance is enough to loose your license.
Issue to date:
Failled turbo replaced, was and electronic issue.
Vibe on front brake application, running Different pads, not supplied by dealer.
Like doing some work myself, and can say parts are much less expensive than the R50 especially if you don't shop at the Stealers.
