Morning everyone!
First post here!
I have only recently come into land rover ownership (after many years drooling over other peoples).
I have a 1987 90 2.5 petrol and when I got it I had visions of putting a 200tdi to improve the terrible fuel economy and make it a bit more day to day use friendly.
However, after a year I'm not sure I want to. It is in really good condition generally (even the engine!) except the paint and I intend to get a respray once finances allow. Once that is done it seems a shame to then change it. I kind of feel I should keep it as it came out the factory. Preservation if you like!
It would be good to see what everyone else thinks. Keep it original, or go for the engine change!
Thanks!
