That's an L322. Sorry, thought we were talking P38. That L322 will have been less than ten years old at the time. Something to bear in mind. Beware the GM autobox. Jag v8 is the engine for reliability.

Unless the petrol has improved in Africa since I lived there, I doubt the Jag V8 would last long.

Think outside, no box required.
Doesn't matter what engine it has, if there are twigs in the fuel i doubt any engine would survive.
For the L322 the Jag v8 is the best unit.

No but it was about 60 octane if I was luckyIs it spicy water?
P38, maybe. The newer diesels are far more temperamental.

I don’t think a Disco is better off-road than a P38 - Or I’d have bought a rotten one of them instead.
You only have it coz your P38 was stuffed and guzzles too much
