What are those VM engines like for reliability?

After 25 years no two engines are alike so I wouldn?t bank on what someone is willing to tell you when you ask that question. The honest truth will take some testing and inspection. You can have the fluids tested for wear metals and contamination and you can inspect things like hoses and cooling systems for function. That?s the minimally invasive step and you get what you pay for. No guarantees. The invasive way to assure reliability is to rebuild. If reliability is a high value factor then new and proven is on one end of the spectrum and used and unknown is on the other. It?s all a gamble though, don?t fool yourself.

I ran a VM engined RRC for about three years, never really had any issues with it. It was used mainly as a tow vehicle for the ex's two bay horse box. Plenty of pulling power but just hope you are not in a hurry.

If only LR would have fitted the five clyinder engine that was first tested. Not sure on the parts availability Roversnorth did have head gaskets years ago in their clearance section lol

That engine got pulled and replaced with a 2.8 Daihatsu engine a sweet engine in the day, was like night and day.
