Looks like LR are going hard on accessories too

I thought they would be metal and part of the guards unless they are a different spec vehicle.

Could have been a another part of the vehicle that was under camouflage, under wrap it looks like one guard, I'm wrapped it looks like there isn't ABS outer section according to that photo.

Common rail = cheap.

Nothing wrong with unit injectors. Still used in real diesels.

+1 , they can keep the same oil filtration system if they want as well. Offset crank, 20 valve head , vvt , even keeping at 2.5 litre should be good for a lazy 550-600 nm , they could accidently forget to encrypt the ecu as well . ...... OK that last one might be pushing it
