I have 1 and a half sitting in my shed, your welcome to have.

As you've seen, they are around when you go looking. . Many people bag them out, but they are a smooth running engine that suits the Series perfectly. They rev much easier that a Holden 6 and with a bit of work make some good reliable power. See the thread on here in the Series 3 section - '2.6 Engine Improvements'

Probably won't be as cheap to rebuild as a Holden 6 but by the time you factor in engineering for the Holden engine, you will be miles in front using the Rover 6.

Mate 300 TDI engine out of a disco. Works beautifully lots of parts available.
