I have just become the proud owner of a very cheap lightweight (24V FFR) as a replacement for my 200TDI Station wagon... now the lightweight is not the most economical of beasts and it needs a 200TDI, or 200Di or NA sooner rather than later.
The station wagon has just run out of MOT (F Plate) and will need minor bits, brake light bulb, wiper , fuel cap and a new thermostat housing bolt as I sheared one but I think thats it, Its a Disco 200TDI, brand new radiator, exhaust conversion pipe, veg oil heater block and runs very well
So would you....
1) Sell as is (cant afford to tax & MOT) and then buy all the bits to 200TDI the lightweight?
2) Remove the engine, new rad and all the conversion bits and sell as a 110 LEZ compliant 110 Station wagon needing engine?
Your thoughts appreciated....
Now off to search and see if the petrol lightweight mounts will accept the 200TDI as is and which gearbox holes to drill....
Cheers Steve
