Brand New Engine Undertrays.
First time I've seen this:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rover-75-...W+%28Diesel%29 Is it something new? Or have I missed out on something?

Please don't !

Please don't buy one of these ! They are made from cheap plastic and have little or no rigidity not to mention the fixing holes being in the wrong location I fitted one for a member and I had to re drill most of the holes because they were at least 20 mm (3/4 inch) out of alignment and even when fitted it didn't fit tight up to the subframe Hope this helps Regards Steve Last edited by steveo; 2nd September 2018 at 09:14.. |

They are NOT very good as mentioned above,Also they do not have the sound deadening padding on them .It is what you see just a Plastic Tray.

Out of interest (and because I've never compared them ), is there any difference between a V6 and diesel undertray ?

On the other hand .............
Please folks BUY SOME of these rubbish items mentioned in the 1st link and then use the eBay returns system. The return postage will cost the seller dear so if enough of you do this the seller will soon stop selling these. Ebay is superb these days for the protection of buyers and returns are applied for with one click. I return many items which don't live up to my expectations. These cheap importers need to be taught a lesson that we are fed up with poor quality items. The other rubbish undertray seller is from Poland item no 191071128618 Please order some of these too and then return them. It will cost you nothing as ebay fully refund you and bill the seller for return costs ! Please PM me when you've done this so I can monitor my little protest 👍

Well mine's a diesel, so it would have to be already well on fire for the undertray to catch fire. Unless vapourised, diesel is no-where near as flammable as petrol and certainly not explosive. Perhaps the cheap ones only fit diesels properly, or perhaps there's Euro-cheap, and then there's Chinese-cheap!
