compared to what?
Compared to a stock 3.5 or 3.9 Rover V8 yes, even a modified one.
Now if you're comparing to a 5.7 Chevy Ls1 then no, but you don't see too many Land Rovers with them from the factory.
Ian, just because you don't understand/or get something doesn't make it wrong. Maybe try and be a little open minded????
And yes I have experienced many different Land Rover setups, either owned or have used:
3.5 Carb V8 Range Rover
3.5 EFI Range Rover
3.9 EFI Range Rover
4.6 HSE P38 Range Rover
3.9 EFI V8 Discovery
200Tdi Discovery
300Tdi Discovery
300Tdi Defender 90 (several)
3.5 carb V8 90
3.9 88" special (Chopped down RR)
3.5 Series 3
2.25 series 2 & 3 (several)
n/a diesel series
2.5TD 90
2.5 VM turbo deisel Range Rover
TD5 90
TD5 Discovery (several)
2.7 TDV6 Discovery 3
2.5 DSE p38 Range Rover
As for fast or powerful cars, well I have a custom built 3.5 Rover V8 Triumph TR7 sports car and a 5.7 litre Ls1 V8 powered Camaro z/28, I've also owned V12 Jaguars and turbocharged 4 cylinder sports coupes.
