People always want what they can't get.
G.B. is thick with Tdi's but some of us want V8's and vice versa.

:hmm Maybe we should start an international engine swap program

I know I would swap my 4.0 (and related bits) for a 300TDI + related bits :cool:

Win/Win

There's no real shortage of V8's but Landrover just don't build many V8 90's anymore. hence the building of expensive one off's. (back to the start of the thread). :)

I'm back in the UK at the minute and would love to have my NAS D90 here. But with gas at over $6 per gallon and with a 70 mile commute each day, I'm just glad I have a "normal" car that does 50 mpg (diesel). Being waterproof if just an added bonus :)
