Looking for a Rover 75 2.5 v6

Hello everyone, I am looking for a 75 in 2.5 v6 automatic.
I live in France, I already have two 75 in diesel.

Is it reliable?
You will be able to tell me what things to watch for on this engine, as well as the lead times for gearbox and engine oils changes, timing belts and the rest.

Thank you very much. I’ve been through a lot of forums, please excuse me for creating another forum.
Have a good evening.:}

Hello Brahim,

Like every engine, it is reliable if maintained and repaired properly.
The things which are specific to the KV6 are:

Coolant leaks in the 'V' (common)
Oil cooler failure (uncommon)
VIS actuator and flap problems (common)
Blocked crankcase breather in cam covers (common)
Whether the tensioner and idler pulleys were renewed with the timing belts

Try this for starters:
