If someone who has a standard series engine fitted could measure the distance from the front crossmember to the engine mounts that would help you.

They are starting to crack down on it though, my brother works for a van hire company that also rents camper vans, they got a letter from Highland Council telling them that illegally parked camper vans will be towed away and the drivers prosecuted.

Wild camping in Scotland is only legal if your on foot and carrying your kit, you don't need a permit to wild camp. pulling over in a lay-by, or bit of grass next to the road in a campervan, caravan or car with a roof tent is illegal without the land owners consent...

If your visiting Scotland be aware that the only place you can camp with a roof tent on a vehicle is a campsite unless you have permission from the land owner of your chosen " off grid " campsite.

I am now enlightened

You would have to enlighten me on that one !

Get in touch with Engine 710 at South Queensferry they know their stuff.

Your easiest option would be to buy or hire an engine crane, remove the diesel engine, cut off the engine mounts, hold the V6 in place with the crane, bolt it to the gearbox, bolt engine mounts to the engine then weld to the chassis. if you can't weld get in a mobile welder who could do it for...

Stopped making tdi's about 1998 unless you have a wolf.

The number you have posted is the engine type, it's a 3 ltr Capri engine. The engine number is stamped on the flat surface at the back of the engine block above the flywheel.

The V6 engine mounts are in a different position compared with the standard LR mounts. Steve Parker used to have the fitting instructions on their web site but I don't see them anymore. It might be worth your while to e-mail them and see if they still have them somewhere and they could send them...

Just be aware that if you make a claim and the insurance company believe that you are the main driver and not your mother they will not pay out. And you would probably get done for insurance fraud.

Standard diffs and 205/16s. Had to see what it could do !

I've seen my Speedo hit 90 mph !!!

I think that the Essex is about 130 bhp.

The Essex was already fitted when we bought the Landy 29 years ago, never felt the need to change it. it does sound good, but not as good as a V8 !

Just to throw a spanner in your works, what about a Ford V6 Essex ? I have one in mine and I like it.

I suppose a tiger is as good a anti theft device as a lion !
