Puma 2.4 vs 2.2 - comparison

[rar110]

I know a few have told me the 2.2 Puma is noticeably better to drive than the early 2.4s.

Does the same apply to the last of the 2.4s vs the early 2.2s?

I don't think the 2.4 evolved much over it's lifespan, so I a later 2.4 would be the same as an early 2.4, except being obviously newer...

Having moved from a 2009 2.4 to a 2013 2.2, the 2.2 was noticeable better, less vibration, noise and much smoother. It just feels nicer to drive - I can't say there was a measurable performance increase - but certainly no decrease.

If I hadn't of driven the 2.2 I would not have known the differences, the 2.4 was OK to live with too. As long as you don't drive a 2.2 you won't know what you are missing out on.

Exactly why I dragged my wife out of the dealers yard as soon as we'd signed the order for a new 110 defender (she was starting to eyeball the Disco 4 sitting there). HA HA.
