One of either the 3 or 3.1 litre engines is fairly delicate with injectors giving issues beyond that I think they are a very good car known a few folk to have them and be well pleased. Just can't remember which is the bad motor, though I think it's 3. I'll have a Google for you.

It was the 3L that was bad....back in the T reg days, not sure how it is with the year your considering. We have a T reg 3.0L RS Trooper, had all the recalls done, new engine etc....runs perfect.  :azn: (it could be for sale if you are interested, only gets driven once a week to do the shopping).
