At that time ( early 2,000nds ) everything here re passenger cars were mainly petrol engines and commercial vehicles were pretty much diesel.
I think Mgrs major competitor at the time was Jaguar and all the S types and x types imported here were petrol as well so the petrol 2.5 was the choice as it was the biggest engine mgr offered then.
The only car makers that were starting to bring alot of diesel passenger cars in at that time were Mercedes and Bmw .
