240Joe I have a ‘12 3.2 for daily driving and it’s great. With just short trip town driving it gets 12L/100k, when I tow a Jayco hawk behind it on longer trips it gets 13L.
When I test drove a few there was a huge difference in the feel and power of a well maintained engine and not. Mine likes a regular oil change.
A reason to choose the 3.2 is that parts are easily available from FCP and apparently Land Rover.
The engines were made in a LR factory to Volvo spec. As Ford owned all those brands incl Jaguar at the time many parts were shared.
Unfortunately some parts were cost cut but you can buy LR replacement parts that are superior like the Haldex bearing that fails. Crazy cost cutting that costs US later.
I am sitting on 10.4/100 at present T6 at over 220,000 kilometres. Mostly city freeway and suburban to and from work. Worst when I fang it is just under 13s.....Running 30% ethanol to 70% 98 fuel kicks it higher but ohh my, the extra power!
@egads (she/her) , if you can find the year model that has twin turbo D5 look seriously at it.....Sure, I dislike sitting in our S80D5 at lights in summer with window down for the smell but then any time in city I always keep windows up and recirculation on as I don't want to breathe traffic fumes anyway, my health is too precious.
