All the media publications have been carry reviews for the last year since the RHD version was made available. But very few have been sold. There are big discounts at the dealers. The Range Rover has always dominated the UK market |

True.
These new MB diesel engines are way better than the petrol engines.
You cannot even tell the difference while listening to the engine at low revs, whereas mine sounds like a tractor. |

When the EVO Mag Jurnos did the road test at Silverstone an exhaust analysis was done, not much more than hot air coming out, or as Jezer would say, baby foxes and daffodils. certainly no stink. Having said that the new petrols that are a blend with wood alchohol are a tad whiffy. |
