New Defender 90 fuel tank, Landrover price 550, Britpart price 102 pounds, when you see them side by side you cannot tell the difference  ???

Still about 800 quid on ebay, Gene, and that's a refurbished unit.

I'm hoping that I've found one from a BMW 5 Series that will do the job - ?150. I'm told its the same engine, so fingers crossed....

@ Dantheman: I had heard of a tank from Paddocks that was ill-fitting, but I have had no problems fitting the Britpart one.
@ Genem: The BMW 525 tds engine is the same as the 2.5 deisel that is fitted to the P38, however I am led to believe that it is tuned differently, possibly the tuning can be changed by re-mapping the ECU.

Got the P38 back tonight - Thanks Dave.   Bill not just quite as bad as expected- and its been given a wash so thanks for that as well !   ;)
Seems to be running fine, so the ?150 Ebay BMW 5 Series injector pump might work out OK   :)
