character, I stand to correction, but I believe ALL D4/LR4s are manufactured in your country; only the destination of the final product varies...

As to the engine, look no further than the one developed for the 5 litre Jaguar. (Now there is a cat that can roar!)

The old girl is on her third engine...
* first ran a bearing (design failure in original engine)
* second had a failure of the water outlet on top of the engine (pls check yours)

Curiously, the only EU market where you appear to be able to order one of the price list is Greece! Is that because diesel is not as widely distributed?? Trouble is, the list price inlcuding taxes appears to be €90k!!!

I wonder what the ex-tax price would be (is it just 21% VAT?) and if a tax free export sale could be arranged!

i think its the jag 5.0l v8 as in the FFRR / RRS but without the supercharger, so a few less horses
 There's one wheel on my wagon, but i'm still rollin' along, it's the cherokee, they're after me, but I'm singing a happy song
