Turbocharger Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 My little bro bought a 300Tdi one last week, £250 + VAT new off the shelf from Paddocks although I appreciate they're not that local to you Turners have upgrade options too.

Mark90 Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 Turners would get my vote, and money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill van snorkle Posted October 13, 2007 Author Share Posted October 13, 2007 I'd read on Outerlimits that 200 TDI cylinder heads were now on the ''no longer available'' list as replacement parts. In my previous life repairing other folks landRovers we had many 2 and 300 tdi cylinder heads rejected by engine reconditioners as being too soft for refurbishing. I was toying with the idea of slipping a 200 into my series2 but if the parts supply is drying up I'll continue with my Toyota option. bill.

Roverdrive Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 I think Roland at Automotive ??? had some. He is based in the Deeside area or possibly Sandycroft near to Queensferry. Ased to advertise in the mags, but not got a copy with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adz Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 http://www.paddockspares.com/pp/DEFENDER/E...d_-_200TDI.html They're still advertising them on Paddocks site... no idea if that's 'new new' or 'some other sort of new' Might be worth a phonecall all the same.
