Would expect it's been done many times as the 200tdi was a factory fitment to the Classic in the early nineties.

But no auto option 'till the 300tdi was fitted, don't know if that makes any difference?

there was a factory retro fit my bro fitted a few when they come out in the 90's. But as suggested get an old disco and use all the bits

Petrol Auto box is no good. Best bet is buy disco tdi auto and drop it all in, just have to reposition mounts off disco on to Rangie. My mate just sold disco £500, plenty out there. Having said that, the best diesel to go with auto box is Mazda SLT 35 , awesome power, smooth, good on fuel. Kits are available from Motor and Diesel. Hope i've helped.
