He never said L322 did he ?
Not sure what's worse, the mention of L322 or diesel!

MartynV8 is a convicted V8 petrol fan. Nor does he like the L322. But i'll bet my lads TDV8 Sport will blow his petrol V8 into oblivion and use less fuel doing it.
To be honest I have driven a few tdv8s sport and l322 and they are not that quick,they feel quick when the turbos are boosting but run flat higher up the revs,I recon my 4.6 will give one a good run,keeps giving good power all the way up the revs,MartynV8 is a convicted V8 petrol fan.

If my old D3 is anything to go by no contest. Worlds apart from a 4.6 thor.

But a 5.0 supercharged one will blow his diesel into oblivion...
A 4.6 p38 has almost same power to weight ratio as a 3.6 tdv8 sport,the new 4.4 tdv8 is a bit higher at almost 128bhp per ton as opposed to around 102 bhp per ton for p38 ,not to bad for a 1960 s design,the p38 benefits because it's lighter by almost half a ton.
Less than a second ,nothing a good driver couldn't sort out,
If you want 0-60 times a Yamaha R1 is probably the way to go... If its driving a leather armchair around with excellent off road capabilities, then for me, the P38 is mustard.
Where's the caravan?
