As far as I know it was only the RR 3.0 litre that got the BMW Diesel engine and best not to forget that the Freelanders 2.0litre diesel engine is also BMW and I tell you that is a sweet wee enigne.

The 330d can shift even the 120d can shift and you can spec the particular filter Don't know about the rest haven't driven them.

I was just thinking about this thread today as we started up the X'er to go shopping and had a wee smile on my face at the sound of our diesel engine.

I still can't get my head round how they wouldn't meet USA emission laws of course the quality of fuel in America is not as great as ours as you ofter hear JC from Topgear referring to.
