    No power to starter from key? 1969 auto P6

    Hello. I was driving along, then all of a sudden the engine cuts out! It now refuses to turn the engine over.

    Window Frames !?!?!

    Main and big end bearings P6 V8.

    Hello. Can anyone tell me, if the bearings are the same in my 1975 P6, as the SD1 and early carb land rovers please? There's loads for sale for the V8 land rover at a very good price from land rover specialists, but they do tweek engines through the years sometimes. Many thanks.
