I went with LR a year and a half ago (due to a £10k difference in price and test driving the SR+ which felt plenty fast enough compared to my Audi S5 but wanted 4 wheel drive) and have just ordered a P to replace it. MaInly because my LR has hardly lost any value, the difference in RRP is now only £5k in the UK, and I need to scratch the itch for the P. Also I got black for the LR, which I now regret because despite meticulously careful cleaning it’s scratched and swirled badly. I’ve gone with red for the P. Got white interior on LR and same on P because IMHO it’s makes the cabin feel more ‘special’ than the black.
Once I’d had the LR for a few months I got acceleration boost as I’d hoped that’d stop the craving for the P - it didn’t! With respects to your worries about the acceleration, I really wouldn’t. The pedal is very linear in its power delivery and controlling it is so easy - to me it actually makes driving safer as you have more options to ‘escape’ anything and you have complete confidence in what it’s going to do (no waiting for a turbo to spool up etc).
