BreakMyWindow 1870 Report post Posted July 22, 2010 Don't mean to rain on your parade, but the engine pay pic doesn't look like an M62TU, they have an all plastic air intake tube, along with a few other differences. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rogan 1 Report post Posted July 23, 2010 Was up at wrecker Ray's and he reckoned it was tu because it's straight across the front of the engine. I'll see what I can find out and change the auction if it isn't. Won't miss it too much, the people mover is pretty zippy and alot more practical Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HELLBM 1531 Report post Posted July 23, 2010 (edited) Sorry Rogan. Their observations are correct it is a non TU. Must have been a blond moment. Good luck with the sale. Great looking car. Edited July 23, 2010 by HELLBM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deeveus 81 Report post Posted July 23, 2010 (edited) If I had to get a people mover my money would be going on one of THESE I've driven one and they are excellent in terms of grunt (same engine as VW Touareg R5) and build quality.

If I had to get a people mover my money would be going on one of THESE I've driven one and they are excellent in terms of grunt (same engine as VW Touareg R5) and build quality. I bought the peoplemover that was 3rd last on the TG satisfaction survey , has the Nissan VQ35 engine. Edited July 23, 2010 by rogan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
