Differing Engine Bays

[D1ckie]

Just bought a new Cerb - wow

However I've just noticed the engine bay is very different to my old one. They are both 4.2 but on my old car you culd see both the fans at the front of the engine bay but on my new one you can't see them its got an area with TVR stamped on it.

Was this something they changed on later models?

could be a sneaky 4.5

Thanks, but its got the 4.2 top engine rather than the 4.5

Can be a 4,5 bottom. Not uncommon what I've heard.

Would that explain why you can't see the fans at the front on the engine bay?

they simply put that panel in from yr 00 onwards (ish).

You bought the car from ireland. Yes it has a 4.5 bottom end. the prev owner knew that.
Looks like a great car - I loved the spec. Was tempted myself but dont fancy a 3rd cerb (or sorry not a repeat of the fortune prev 2 have set me back).
