Axle:

 Do you Know what wheelbase length  they would be ?
 
What price range would you be talking about for a replacement engine

Bush Tucker Man:
The lengths are (roughly)
90 = 153inches, 92.9inch wheelbase

110 = 188inches, 110inch wheelbase

Engine prices? from £100 (for a runner) up to £2,000+ for a rebuilt example.

MPG? I got an average of 15mpg on LPG, but it would dip into single figures with the caravan, off-road, or on the motorway when 'Making Progress'

On a really hilly tow with the van in the Lake District I've seen 7mpg (for comparison the Discovery averaged 38mpg with a 1500kg twin-axle on to Berwick-upon-Tweed last year)

Axle:
7mpg  :shock:

Xtremeteam:
7mpg,i wish i got that,ive had down to 2mpg on my 90 racer when i was using all the power band (800rpm-6500),that could also contribute to bein now known as lead boots,

Bush Tucker Man:
Sorry that was a 'typo'. for 38mpg, read 28mpg as it was a very steady run up there, only held up by traffic near the Metro Centre (Newcastle)

38mpg! I wish......
Average day-to-day is circa 26-28mpg
