LR3 - NEW 5.0 V8 coming next?

Am I correct to understand that in a year or two there will be a new 5L V8 with a little more oomph and maybe even slightly better mpg?

Does anyone know anything definitive?

Due to emissions Jag/LR are bringing out the 5.0ltr V8 and a 3.0ltr V6 diesel.

Looks like 2009 onwards me thinks.
