You'llk want to swap the engine and 'box, possibly the T-box unless you go for bigger tyres.

Put a tuned 5l V8 in with a new gearbox/transfer box, but leave the MPI stickers on!  :twisted:

Anything would be better than the MPi engine  :lol:

What would you use it for?  Commuting, Laning, P&P sites, as there is an engine for every need   :-k


If in doubt V8  :dance:

Handle every situation like my dog does, if you can't eat it or hump it, wee on it and walk away......
