My N/A is a good runner but it blasts oil out. Do you know if HB's has new piston rings? I'd be willing to pay up to and within the region of 100 pounds, but would like to see photos or possibly video etc. first!

ffs pos u can get a tdi for 300 if you search around a bit, il never understand why you insist on stickin with the NA when for a little more money and effort you can have a far quieter and more powerful engine!

That's very precise! Why not make it a nice round £37.23?

Yes I do like my land rover sounding like a tractor and I like the fuel economy that I get from it. Is a 200 / 300 really more efficient?
Yella - has it got new rings / does it chuck out a load of oil?

a 200tdi is better on fuel than an NA, so ive heard. then again ive also heard the NA is better, but either way im sure theres not a lot in it.

mmm. I like the more traditional engine though. Would a 200 tdi really give me a noticeable performance increase as in feeling like the car is really pulling, up hills too? If the turbo pipe was to go, would it still run quicker than my N/A?

well comparing my mates 200tdi defender to my TD, the difference really is amazing.
ive got a disco 200tdi which im gona put in my TD next weekend, il report back then.
also planning on gettin an allisport intercooler which along with a turbo/fueling tweak should take it up to 140-150bhp.
