As far as I can see apart from the engine and gearbox it's pretty much the same as my current car. Which has lpg . A mate has a 4.2 on lpg with no issues but unsure if it's got valve saver but as he says since getting it so cheap it's a no brainer. |

Go into it expecting to spend a few quid to get it right and then look after it and it will be good as gold

when i got mine i put it on a 4 post ramp in my workshop it was up there for 5 months and i replaced every drop of fluid on the vehicle with all gen oils and liquids and filters etc . i stripped it there was more parts of than on at one time every thing went back with stainless steel bolts nuts screws etc all sills done and body work all done i enjoyed every min of it to bring such a nice car back or if not better than it was . when i do things i look at improving what was there in the first place and making items fit better etc . i all ways change my oil and filter every 3k miles with right oil and gen filter the old oil gets pumped in to the box sections and any cavities . i have had a lot of land rovers in the past but seem to talk to this one more saying well girl i have done all i can for you it is time for you to look after me now fingers crossed all well to date

I still prefer my L322 v8 but with impending ulez this will have to do for now until I find a good s/c fullfat |

You need the Ninja H2 if your marmite is supercharging and not turbos or normally aspirated petrol ….. |
