Just curious if anyone is thinking about replacing their GL with the new LR4

Been there, done that. Twice. Never again.

Beautiful cars, expensive to maintain; useless, slack-jawed dealers and techs...

Which is really the biggest shame, though I am glad to hear some companies are increasing their diesel presence.

Wouldn't it be great to be able to get a Ford Mondeo with the diesel engine in it? Perhaps the most popular car in western Europe!

I agree 100%.

I had hoped that LRUSA would import the RR with the TDV8 in it for 2010 which is a fantastic engine. Great hp and huge amounts of torque. I simply will not purchase another LR product until it is available here in the USA. I have owned two RRs btw, and have had great luck and excellent service with both of them.
