Within 2 days of the car being returned he's upped the price by 2k, after the experience I wouldn't trust him with a matchbox car let alone a G4 and I'm normally a good judge of character! All I can suggest if you're really interested in it either take a diagnostics mach if you've got one or book an AA or RAC inspection. NE08 KUN - D3 & BT52 OWG -D2 (And then there were 2!)

The petrol v8 engine is quite bullit proof, I would of said it wouldn't be cheap to sort it out. Bits for that 4.4 bmw engine are not cheap. Mark. Interesting you should say that Mark !!!! As I heard that they ran better on LPG, Or should I say it's less harmful to the Nikasil liners than Petrol. On a Rover V8 I'd agree. Phil.

I think Je engineering created a system that had a device that added a type of oil to the engine so it lubricated the valves. Mark. g4 owners club treasurer 2010-2016 G4 06 FFRR. G4 09 FFRR G4 06 D3.

S Group: G4 Member Posts: 98, Visits: 442	Hi Chaps, for information,and if anyone needs any info, I have the JE Engineering Autolube and Twin LPG kit on my AJV8 -now done 130000 miles without touching the LPG system . Uses no oil, no puffs of smoke on start, and starts on the button every time but twice in 7 years -both times the battery died. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend JE . I have used it seriously on and off road as far as Ukraine and Romania and above 6500 ft in carpathian and Pyrenees . However I may be about to sell Gina for the LHD equivalent or similar as spending more time across the water these days.

Will you sell it for a LHD then? now about CNV, did anyone else visit the dealer to check on it? is it still waiting in a hangar somewhere dying slowly or being fixed once and for all? tx l=Oo\________/oO=l & l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l SDV8 L405 RR, TRëK Range Rover P48 & L322 Range Rover "BT52 CNE"
