Subject: Re: LG45 / LG6 strange engine number
How about this for a possible answer?
If a car still under guarantee developed an engine fault the factory would have whipped out the motor and put in a replacement and sent the car back to the customer.
They then investigated what the problem was. Perhaps they sent the engine back to Meadows who the rectified the fault and sent it back, waiting in the stores to be put into the next car being produced. So someone with their "new" LG6 got a perfectly good remanufactured engine. It was just from an earlier batch.
The LG6 was after all only intended as stopgap model before the V12 engines were available. The fact that they are very good cars is another story...
