Chris Putt:
Anyone know what the last post on here is supposed to mean? Im lost? I assume its talking about banks of cylinders? What has war got to do with it? This isnt abuse, just try and make your posts in some way coherent so the rest of us have some chance of understanding what your trying to get at if you are going to take up space on the forum?!

Guardian.:
can you lot hear yourselves, change a v8 for a derv, please.
just go out to your disco v8 now strike her up and blip the throttle a couple of times, then ask yourself why you posted this!
i know you will then imediately spelt with 1 m, realise you have just had one off those funny mad moments and all will be ok again.

The Fat Controller:
i have collected a few motors over the last 5 years,3 Range Rover Classics,1 Series 2a,a 300tdi Disco and i look aftera 1975 TACR2.
all the Range Rovers started their lives with V8 engines one got changed as the engine was dieing .the replacement engine was a diesel.i love the V8's,ones on petrol the other on LPG they are both different animals and while the engines are good that's how they'll stay.the diesel conversion was a great idea but hard work in practice.home made conversion plate and engine mountings and then fuel modifications for the 6 cylinder diesel to run.DIESEL is now a good diesel and checked by vosa i did that for piece of mind.
the disco is fine,pulls well and returns good fuel economy,after nearly a years use i must thank SWMBO as i would have spent the £1335 it cost me on another Range Rover.i have auto boxes in the Disco and the LPG Range Rover with 5speed manuals in the other 2 Range Rovers.
this will not help you make a decision but it may make you say "why don't i get a second motor"
thanks for letting me add confusion
