Has anyone heard when the new auto is to be launched which brings it on a par with the manual mpg and tax figures ie below 160co2

I gather you're talking about the 8-speeder that is being introduced in the updated XF Jag. I'd bet it won't arrive until LR have got their replacement engines ready. I don't see the point of doing the engineering for a replacement gearbox when they are already starting the replacement engine program.

Introducing the 8-speeder now would add costs to the vehicle that would likely make it more expensive than its competitors.
