What other manufacturers use JATCO?

Jaguar, Ford, Mazda, Freelander, Nissan, (Nissan Owns JATCO IIRC)

If they can take the strain of Freelanders and Jags the JATCO should last well in 75 ZT's then?

Remember the old ZF Auto box in the Rover 800's.
Some of the earlier boxes had a short life, until Rover had brake bands and bearings etc uprated.

Apologies, it was actually 217500, sold for £3510. Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/02-ROVER-75-CO...QQcmdZViewItem

But that assumes only 1 mile per gallon - unless I'm missing something? Surely even the V8 does more than that?

Assuming 20 mpg (a pure guess on my part), should it not be (100,000 / 20) X (95 X 4.54) ? That would give a total of ..... errr ..... £21,565!!! (i.e what you said above). How did that happen? How did you know I would assume 20 MPG?

Coo that fetched a comparativly good price considering no proper history after 50,000 miles and then all the deceptive stuff about engine and box looks too clean! don't think I would have been too keen without knowing a lot more

Me either. Having said that, the M47R is a pretty clean engine. They seem to go on forever with little or no head seepage so its almost certain that even at 215k, the engine itself will look like a 30k engine from lesser cars.
