    Hard luck. It's amazing the number of people who dont know these things.

    I have been told in the past by so called car enthusiasts, about the Isuzu diesel in Defenders, Peugeot diesel in Defender, and of course the BMW diesel in Defenders (Td5)

    Well, having been known to do the odd spot of wheeling and dealing you soon learn just how retarded alot of people are

    Unfortunately its just part of the game and keep in mind, you'll never know unless you check it out

    I didn't know the County came with the turbo version of the 3.9 Isuzu anyway - so if the original claims had been correct would it have had a different engine or a turbo just plonked on the standard engine.

    AFAIK it didn't. The turbo was fitted to the 6x6.

    I've heard of a few around that claim to have come with 4BD1-T. With the similarities in the two engines, it's not impossible to imagine that there were a few special orders.
