brooklands was the standard 100 inch wheelbase
other than a bodykit and a few extra bits of trim and badges i dont think there was much else to them...dont pay over the odds!
i think these were originally built on 3.9 V8's but im not 100% sure.

the longer version is the LSE...which should have a 4.2 V8 in if its original

Be very careful buying deisel conversions from the original V8, if the auto box hasn't been swapped or significantly modyfied it will not change gear properly.  I've seen some shoddy ones.
