But, the 200TDI is a fine modernish engine and can last indefinitely if taken care of.
Apparently Salisbury diffs weigh more than Mogs and 200tdi's last forever

Not at all. I run one and the wear metal levels are as good as any modern diesel. I've seen a few apart and they show no wear to speak of.uninformed wrote:by taken care of do you mean put the car up on blocks and never use it??? seriously you are way off on this one.....

200tdi's can go on and on if the previous owner was anal about servicing and maintenence, but when they go wrong they go wrong very expensively.molive wrote:hi. im looking at a 93 model defender with a 200 tdi with 400 000 k's on it. in good condition. what distance should i expect out of this engine. car is $6500.

Check the Harmonic Balancer for play, get a record of when the timing belt was last changed, get an injector test if you can.
