What would be a good engine to fit in that Ford Pilot now its lost its V8? I’m thinking maybe an Indenor 2.5 diesel from an LDV Convoy. Or maybe a Landrover 200TDi. What a wonderful thing it is anyway, I’d love it. I’ve chucked it in the watch list.

5 doors 5 seats and a A Series engine?

 

12 months MOT and all for under 500 quid.

 

Yeah nobody wants that.

240 miles each weekend, the first 60 in Friday evening traffic. Not a good plan for an A series, in my experience....

 

I could be wrong though.

Sorry (not sorry)

I have seen this driving around always with the drivers door open and it's been on sale for a while and love the look of it.

Landcruiser straight six diesel? Its the ultimate anti government car, tax exempt, mot too, emmission zone exempt and will run on tax free cooking oil. You can grow and mill your own oil too if feeling nutty enough like me. Zombie Apocalypse- no problem I have a Pilot.

A Ford sidevalve V8!

There are lots of Ford flathead engines about, they were made by the million and are still very well supported. Which makes the removal of this car's engine (to build a Rod or whatever) even more absurd.

Only just caught up with this thread and just noticed the car in the background of that Commer "knocker".post-17414-0-61001100-1542116615_thumb.jpeg

Can't be a coincidence that it's another odd dizzler, it's a VW XL1- I thought it was just a concept car but apparently they made 250. It's a 2 cylinder diesel hybrid that was good for 0.9l / 100km ( 300mpg)

Anyway, how about a TS3 lump in the Pilot? Wonder if any were put in cars, in period?

That looks stupendous!

 

Unfortunately, I am much like The Reverend Bluejeans re these -

 

The last e32 735i manual I had had 184k on it and cost £100 with 6 month's mot (bought 2014)

 

If someone has the money and is after a big old barge - it's either this or an LS400 that is the route to happiness..

I have a feeling that will end up in an auction or a white room for twice this amount in the near future.

These things were twice the car a W126 or XJ40 was when new and the LS400 was far more of a cruiser, more akin to the 750, which to me was a barge, especially in LWB form.

The manual big six always had the slowest reacting flywheel of anything I've driven before or since, but once you got used to it an e32 could cover ground easily as well as a 5 or 635. And you'd never try to keep up with a 300e in even a V8 S Class of the era.
