& those that do already have one

I spent a lot of time trying to find a proper sump plate for the original RRS without any luck*. Didn't stop me off roading mine though! A bit like hens' teeth, it seemed. Ironically, now I'm about to sell the TDV8, one is available for an excellent price!

But Chris has something equally tasty stashed away for me for my new RRS...


*LR charge a king's ransom for one, if you can find one in stock. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

It’s gone but to a good home

Paul up the no name said he sold the classic and kept that old Merc

Coffee was spot on, thanks

Plate now in my garage and will fit once I sort out some bolts. I know about the need to work. You've got a LR habit to feed too!

Didn't know Mantec had gone under  2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Yes they went under about a week ago, sad times for a company with alot of LR heritage

I definitely have the correct bolts for it but will need to dig when i get back mate  2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black
