I am looking at buying a sport 3.6 td V8 or a vogue 4.4 td V8..
Will I be disappointed in the performance of the 3.6 as I currently have a 4.4 petrol Vogue.

What's the best engine to go for?

Stick with your 4.4 petrol. LPG it if you have to. Might need flashlube on it but not sure.

You cant do better than the guys at Gibsons. If they cant do it, then you are stuffed. But give them and us a chance before you bin her.

Just make sure you go over the warranty with a fine tooth comb.







Or you'll be back here asking for help, quicker than you can say 'should I scrap it'
