Got unfinished business with Montegos, particularly diesel estates, and I've got a spare set of unused 6n Polo coilovers sat around... Edit: I loved this piece of shit, but it was rotten. Utterly rotten, and a load of oil had been spilled on the back seat. Sills and pillars made of wob and rolled up newspapers... So rattle cans and drunken lowering it was. I used to own K612 WOL, a Rover 827 that had similar vibes Cavcraft, Rustybullethole, Wibble and 1 other 4

Had a mk1 years ago and although it looked great the bloody thing broke down every time i took it out or id probably still have it

One of the very few applications of an XUD in longitudinal and RWD, so the gearbox is a bit of a mystery to me.

If I was to hazard a guess, either an LT77 or R380 on a custom bell housing, as that's what the LDV Pilot did. Some late Caros had K Series engines, so that link with the RG was there. I'm probably talking shit. Matty 1
