    5L SC RRS ?

    What year did LR cease using the SC V8?

    I think I saw an metallic orange L494 marked as such?


    375KW is hard to argue with...

    You should have a look at SAMCRAC on youtube and see the videos on trying to replace the timing chains on one of these.
    In the end he has sold it to a wrecker as he cannot get it to be fault free.

    They still produce the RRS, Velar and FFRR with the SCV8 as far as I know but the base model is now 386KW with the SVR at 423KW.

    The 5.0 supercharged V8 is still in the current RRS - from the LR Aust website

    Range Rover(R) Sport SVR - Land Rover(R) Australia Look at 'Engines at a Glance"

    0-100kph in 4.5secs - top speed 283kph, 423kw, 700nms

    It was the D4 that dropped the 5.0V8 and went to a SCV6.

    I've had a quick blatt in one recently... you will NEVER go back to anything less than 500hp after a drive, I warn you....

    And they fixed the timing chain tensioners in 2012 (not that I'm looking) A very nice 2014 Autobiography with 65000KM went for $89990 in Sydney recently and an equally nice 2014 HSE with 52000KM went for $88990 in Adelaide (not that I'm looking)

    Yes, the SVR F-Pace and F type both use it. Both are a weapon to drive.
