Has anyone else noticed that the 110 used in Death in Paradise has changed from a 300Tdi to a Td5?

Wasn't the first one earlier than a 300? I had the feeling that it was a petrol.

I am afraid I got shot down for noticing that so keeping quiet now
If anyone watches hinterland there will be a change on there for the true Land Rover anoraks (non defender though) |

I think it's a diesel 300, my wife likes watching this programme and I don't mind. It has a Land Rover in it and also a combination motorcycle outfit. |

I noticed that it had gained some alloys and that something wasn't quite right with the engine note when compared to the age of the truck. 2015 Audi Q3 Quattro S Line Plus 184 TDI Stronic

Once you have land rovers under your skin you notice all the details.
There's an American chick flick which has a yellow NAS. Have no idea about the story but that yellow defender is on my list of top defenders. |

Yup - I noticed the alloys too, but it looks like they have been 'weathered' so as not to stand out too much. Euro-Leafing to infinity and beyond.....

Because the old one was completely rotten. A 300 with a chassis that's not got the strength of cheese that lives by the sea.
