    300Tdi in a Defender

    There are people who spend all weekend cleaning the car.
    And there are people who drive Discovery.

    Acoustic cover over the engine, I think it was introduced with the 300 Tdi.

    Cheers all for the quick reply! Massive help! I've just bought a 98 110 wagon with 198000 on the clock. It needs a bit of a tidy up. I just wanted the 300tdi because of the allisport turbos etc.

    Not only that, the engine is further forward and the turbo is low mount (200tdi turbo is high mount in a defender).

    Aux drive belt, thermostat housing and fan cowling are all different too.

    The biggest give away however is the drive belt. 200Tdi's use a V belt where's 300Tdi's use a Flat Multi-V belt.
    Regards,
    Jon
