    With less weight in a L494, I'd say so. Conversely, an SVR would be inadequately be described as sporty.

    I am wondering about the sportiness of a 4wd with no low range.
    L322 tdv8 poverty pack - wow

    Upgrading?

    Downgrading to a 2.0l...

    I can't believe a 2.0l has 177kw and 500nm…

    i wonder how it will go towing a 3.0t van?

    Puts a late model LC tray back to shame

    Until 2009 (?) a 2.7 diesel putting out 140 kw and 440 nm in a 2.6 t car with a 6 speed box was apparently "sporty"! I bet that thing is good for 0-100 in under 9 seconds.
    Yes, would like to know what it's tow rating is.
    Now 2016 D4 HSE 'Leo' and Steve the Triumph Speed Twin
    Then 2010 D4 3.0 HSE 'James'
    Then 2010 RRS TDV8 'Roger' w traxide DBS, UHF, Cooper Zeons, Superchips remap
    Then 2010 D4 TDV6 'Jumbo' w traxide DBS
    First love 2002 D2 TD5 'Disco Stu'

    Supposedly the same 2L diesel as the current Discovery Sport which has figures of 132kW & 420Nm. Going to 177 & 500 is a marked increase.
