The freelander motor thankfully was only used in the freelander.

Think the KV6 was also used in the Rover 75 saloon car, and possibly the MG version as well.

If performance tuning is your thing then this is the best lump to play with as it is found in the MG ZS. It has one of the most fantastic engine management systems ever developed that gives the engine fantatsic tunability.

They are commonly found on cheap used car lots or junkyards.
