Been in touch with Steven Baldwin a while ago. He had an engine for me but then when he went to inspect it, it was seized solid. So he wouldn't sell it.
he's stated he's breaking a petrol Defender soon and I can have that engine, but that was na while ago now 110 D250 SE HT

There were very few 2.5 petrol engines fitted to Defenders.

I believe you could order one in the UK for a short while in the first couple of years of Defender, but few were sold.

These engines were mainly fitted to One Tens and Nineties.

Might have some luck on:

As this group covers all coilsprung pre-Defenders, depite the title.
