Actually there was a batch of RRSports built with 4.4S/C engines - about six of them. One of them ended up at the Dunkeld LRE
for a few years, rescued from the Solihull crusher. It wasn't put into production as a 4.4 as they found engine longevity wasn't great. it was sleeved down to the 4.2 with thicker liners in the cylinders (or something like that). 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

Where do i sign?????????

Hi Guys,

the arden is based on the 4.2 AJ Jaguar engine only and costs a bomb!!!

the other entry is correct there was a very elite number of RRS with a SC on the M62 engine, but as the write states the piston barrels get hammered which totals the block, hence the bore out and liners to 4.2 ltrs.

thenm the BMW engine was replaced to the Jag and all hope was lost of a monster.

The link is actual correct scarey, but your as well to go to vortex in the USA direct.

I have fuill coversion details if required via PM and email for all interested.

just don't have the cash to do it, with exhaust and kit 500 HP is possible, but gearbox needs to be new and wont last if punished!!!, you have been warned

Not to be bashful but I know I am, I contacted them and vortex in the USA last year as I was going to drive to Germany to have it done. Hence it is not a M62 engine but an AJ, look at the belt arrangement and the alternator
It is not water cooled...  Current vehicles
