Here's an interesting comparision:

That's what a standard Stag sounds like - great, I'm sure you'll agree. Genuine 6500RPM redline on these beasts and they'll happily rev to it (provided you've got a good one). I've seen one that revs to 7000 as well, no mean feat!

And this :

Is what one with a Rover V8 (mine) sounds like. Much more bassy and refined.
The genuine article is definitely the one to have, in aural terms - it's much more rorty and engaging, it sounds less silenced.
I sold the purple one today as well, going to buy a manual 3.0 next I think! ....preferably in black!
