It also has a pto winch, which was pretty cool, but unfortunately, I cant use it on my good one, and am considering selling it. Anyone want it? So this will keep my going for a while, until I find one of these perkins or an isuzu maybe. With the 2L diesel though, isn't that a bit small? Whats the max speed, and on the beach, how does it go, as I do a lot of beach driving?

pretty much equivalent to a 2.5 lr diesel the 2l prima turbo d works really well with the low gearing of a series box I think the 2l is rated at 82 bhp so 70 mph should be achievable happilly as it is a higher revving lump than the l/r n/a diesels
