Reply With QuoteIt's a BMW M62 engine so there's plenty in wrecking yards.
Even eBay has quite a few engines listed & freight, while probably not cheap, would be easy enough for a wrecker to organise.

Graeme Cooper Automotive in Sydney, hold a secondhand BMW engine in stock for exactly that purpose.
There must be BMW wreckers near you even if you have to go to Brizzy to pick one up. (The other option is a Statutory write off vehicle from the insurance auctions)
You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

While some of the bolt on bits might not be the same, the basic engine itself is.
You might need to strip down the BMW motor to a basic long motor & build it up again using your RR bits.
When LR couldn't supply parts to repair Range Rovers, we used the equivalent BMW part - easy when you're at a dealership dealing with both marques.

SupporterMechanic plus MR rover said bmw motor needs too much modification
Rang and emailed British Off Road and Ritters both have not called back
Did enquire about BM engines but high KS low warranty
To leave our property need big 4wd towing large horse float as have to go up steep dirt rd
any further suggestions

Get in touch with Graeme Cooper Automotive. Explain where you are (not local) & that you've been told that they fit the BMW engine to RRs.
From all reports, they're a decent company so they may well help you and your mechanic with the ins & outs of the job.
Any differences for off road capability will be in the oil sump/pick up area which you have on your old engine.
