200 or 300 Tdi but I don't really know.

That is a 300Tdi, with a 200 Tdi manifold and hybrid turbo conversion. A good mod done around 1996 or so onwards by a few places, John Davis was one IIRC.
The 300 Tdi was 1994 until 1999.

Do I get a prize??? :)

That's a 300 Tdi, used from 1994 to 1998 inclusive, except some later special order vehicles i believe.

And it's in a LHD defender. ( Brake cyl in the wrong place and the air intake goes behind the rocker cover.)

yes it's a 300tdi, but can you guess the year?

Being that this engine is still available for 3rd world countries in NEW manufactured defenders (Presumably still old body styles not puma ) I wouldn't hazard a guess....Could even be a preproduction one using the 200Tdi turbo configuration....

The clue is the yellow cap bottom left hand side of the photo, I'll try 2000.
