What about the engine ?


Engine is a Ssanyong (Daewoo) OM662D29 (similar to the Mercedes OM602D29 as fitted to the 290GD) with a turbo from a Honda engine and a home-made intercooler. It goes quite well, what remains to be seen is the durability!

I don't particularly like that G because it has been heavily modified. The axles are from a Nissan Patrol GR with ARB lockers. No good IMO!

It's a very strange modification, I never see a G like this
