Good thing (it'll run in the wet stuff)
Bad thing (it'll sound like a tractor)
Hmmm :?

I love my TDI auto.  That is until someone pulls up near me with a Rover V8 with that exhaust note!!!

Have to admit, I love the torque and easy motoring of my Tdi, and I can see the advantages in the wet stuff, but I'd dearley love to have a V8! It's just that noise.......

:( After selling my first Rangie v8, i bought a Suzuki sj413 for cheap 4x4 motoring. It was a good little offroader, but the sound and power from a V8 was drawing me back... So i sold the Suzuki and bought the Bobbed Rangie from DPG, and yes theres nothing like a V8 for putting a smile on your face, and dent in your wallet, but i wouldnt have it any other way.
And yes she sounds gorgeous either on tickover or full throttle.  :D
