Cavcraft Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 *Not mine* LDV van (Pilot? The one that replaced the 200)MOT£120, Cambridge.Seemingly the lad sold it to someone who never paid him then knackered the engine up.He says it's the Peugeot engine so I would assume it's DW8 or XUD.He needs it gone ASAP, I don't know him but his name is Patrick Lambert and hes a member of Ovalchat Banger Racing Forum on Facebook.Had he been local I'd have had this and put my spare XUD in it. eddyramrod, oldcars, brickwall and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavcraft Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 'The mot is until 12th of March, the bloke I bought it off originally often spent money on it to keep it in good nick, it's not long ago had brake master cylinder, King pins and a power steering pump, I'll have an engine the same coming for it in around a months time if someone is willing to wait' garbaldy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuvvum Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 This would be the perfect opportunity to fit a turbocharged XUD from a 406, wind the boost up and go Sprinter baiting. I had a Leyland Daf 200 which had been fitted with a Montego turbo diesel engine, and that was good fun (in a straight line at least). eddyramrod, Lacquer Peel, strangeangel and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavcraft Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 The two LDV 200 crewbuses I once had had Perkins engines. I think they were n/a, but still went like a rocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a lad on MacDroitwich who fitted an L-series to a Sherpa. Cavcraft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D Spares & Tyres Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Big power is pointless with these, I had an ex police 2.0 petrol ( with tacho ) many years back and it would just spin a wheel with the slightest of throttle! anonymous user 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dugong Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I really like that. We could use a parts van at the unit. Good job I have a holiday to go on next week and a ton of money coming to me expenses on Tuesday, innit? To be honest, after last week I never want to set foot in Cambridge Central station ever again. Does it / can it drive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavcraft Posted February 20, 2016 Author Share Posted February 20, 2016 I think it's been cooked, Jon. I can try and get more details if you like, but I'm pretty sure it'll need recovering or towing. He's not a mate of mine but I could probably link you in to him on FB if you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
