Default Ride quality of rr sport supercharged vs Range Rover supercharged

I’m working on selling my wife’s 2013 navigator and hopefully replacing it with a supercharged Range Rover. I will probably buy an 06-09 as the prices seem decent. I test drove an 06 sport yesterday and although I loved the power I was quite disappointed in the ride quality. I’m not sure if it was the low profile tires on the big rims or if a sport is just that much firmer.
Has anyone driven a late 2000’s supercharged full size that can comment on the ride/ handling?
In my area full size supercharged are rare and I’ll have to drive quite far for a decent one I’m sure but willing, if they ride decent

A 2006 non supercharged Range Rover has come up for sale within a couple hours drive for cheap as it needs a head gasket. It’s a fully loaded autobiography with safety and etest already done. Anyone tackled the head gaskets on one of these yet at home? I’m assuming it’s the jaguar motor

06 is the Jag 4.4. Abran is probably the only guy on here that has done a HG job on one . They are typically pretty tough motors. Failures of that type don't seem to be the norm.

wow that's impressive.<br /><br />I would want the big daddy range not the sport for what it's worth. I prefer the size and comfort that the L322 offers
