Miss the good old days? This'll take you back... PistonHeads LandRover Discovery3 V8
Even 50 years since the first Range Rover, nothing suits a big Land Rover product quite like a V8 engine. There's even one crammed into the new Defender. And a BMW-made one coming to the next-generation Range Rover. And also why the old V8 diesel was so popular wherever it was installed, combining effortless performance with fuel consumption less ruinous than the petrol equivalent.
The 4.4-litre Discovery was a tough sell even when petrol wasn't approaching £2 a litre. This was the mid-2000s, remember, when diesel was king - with tax and fuel prices to reflect that. The V8 was more expensive to buy and to run than the TDV6, with only a modest - if noticeable - uplift in performance. Its fate was sealed, really, before Land Rover even conceded that only around 10 per cent of sales in Europe would use the engine.
