Land Rover Series III Engines and Transmissions

A Land Rover Series III engine was chosen for pulling power at low revs, not speed. The 2.3-litre diesel with a manual gearbox is one such example, and its all-wheel drive drivetrain, paired with low-range gearing, lets you crawl through mud, sand or steep tracks with control.
