200Tdi is an old-school mechanical diesel, which is a good thing.

Edit: I'm having quite a bit of fun with learning about them, and watching vicariously.
Mate had a fully built 200Tdi. Whilst it was a capable 4x4 it was forever breaking. Back when I was younger we used to go 4x4ing every weekend and I reckon my mates Disco broke something every second weekend. I have many stories I could tell about me saving him in my Maverick countless times. My advice is stay well away, not worth the headache.
