Looks good, as long as it gets regular oil changes.

Always said straight 6 is betterer.
If they detune it to 134bhp May be reliablish

Think outside, no box required.
I'd of nabbed it!
The 4pot in the classic was a nice motor, head and shoulders above the 200tdi that replaced it!!

From an engineering standpoint I would have thought an in-line 6 would be more likely to snap a crank than a V.
Go on then, someone versed in modern LR junk enlighten me

Certainly more torsional stress on the longer crank, straight 8's were a problem. In modern times it's just poor design that leads to breakages.From an engineering standpoint I would have thought an in-line 6 would be more likely to snap a crank than a V.

Thanks for that, the S8 problem is what led me to post my thoughts.
Poor design? from LR … surely not
