what was land rovers best engine

<< < (7/13) > >>

Hobnailkelly:
Still got to be the 2 1/4 petrol. 

Mechanically straightforward, just goes on and on and on and on.
Can be fixed with a large hammer, a Mole wrench and a screwdriver by any semi-competent bush mechanic.  Has commonality of ancilliaries with other Rover/BL models. 
Not tempremental. 
Will withstand a good soaking (with a good squirt of WD40).



Either that or a 2.8 Daihatsu Turbodiesel  :lol: :lol: :lol:

Buick sold the rights to that engine to rover/land rover in the 1960's so legally the rover V8s are land rover engines.

My head says TDi but my heart shouts V8 :twisted:
