Given the current 3 litre engine is getting on and offers barely more performance than the 2 litre, how long before a brand new 3 litre is offered with the Disco?

They have one, they have put the 300hp unit in now but that is in the Sport and FFRV???

That said the unit is old in all versions so due an update.

So I'm taking it that I should wait until the new engines are out? Is the 3l currently the one in the Disco 4? I'm hoping the new engines are not so thirsty.

Yes, current 3l is the same as that in the Disco 4.

My understanding is that JRL have a contract with Ford which expires sometime 2019! So it could be a long wait. :?:
