Time for a bit of edumacation:augie:thumb2 The R3M might have been called a Terrano in some markets (although I'm not sure where) but was better known as the Pathfinder - its not a direct relation and was never sold in Europe, although it uses the early TD Terrano engine and gearbox as far as I know.

Ok, this is the original R3M

Then this is the R3MR...not sure if this was a MkII or just a 'deluxe' version...maybe someone can tell us?

Then there was the Terrano 2 MkI ...built in Spain for the Euromarket but also in Japan and grey-imported here as the Mistral...this one is the Jap-built Mistral, distinguished by the l/h 'old style' wing mirror....and other pointless 'bling' LOL :thumbs:lol

This is the more common Spanish-built Terrano 2 MkI with its square headlights.

This is the T2 MkII, distinguished by its round headlights....plus the addition of the bonnet scoop to supply air to the intercooler, which boosted the engines original 100bhp to around 125bhp.

This is the T2 MkIII identified by its square headlights and clear sidelights, plus the 'teardrop' cutouts in the lower bumper. These make it go faster :lol

And finally this is the MkIV, identified by the square headlights and the revised bumper, with no teardrops and moulded-in 'over-riders' :doh

Oh and I nearly forgot the MkIV 3.0 litre.....set apart by its offset bonnet scoop (although I'm not 100% certain if they were all like that, maybe someone can confirm?)

Can't confirm it as such, but if you look at the I/C placement on the ZD30 engine it difficult to imagine how it could have ever been elsewhere.
