Die 2.0MPI heb ik in het verleden ook al eens naar gekeken maar uit een Disco zijn ze nogal zeldzaam in dit stuk van Europa  Daarnaast qua performance niet ideaal daarom keek ik naar Mercedes/Volvo.

The Rover T16 DOHC 16 valve engine was a 1994 cc petrol engine, produced by Rover from 1992 to 1999. It has a bore of 84.45 mm (3.325 in) and a stroke of 88.9 mm (3.5 in). It is a development of the Rover M-Series (M16) engine which was built from 1986 to 1992 and developed as part of Rover's Project XX, which produced the Rover 800. The Rover M-16 was in turn a 16-valve development of the British Leyland O Series engine - introduced in 1978 -, which dated back to the BMC B-Series engine as found in the MG B and many others. Rover's L series diesel (derived from the Perkins Prima, itself a diesel development of the Leyland O Series engine) uses the same block as the Rover T16.
Several variants of the T16 were produced for various models, but all had the same displacement. The version used by Land Rover, almost exclusively in early Discovery models, produced 136 horsepower (101 kW). It was included in the product lineup entirely as a European tax beater, but the engine wasn't really up to the job of lugging 2 tonnes of metal off-road, or towing large loads on-road, since the headline horsepower figures were only supplied at high revs. Automatic gearbox equipped versions were particularly gutless in comparison with the other engine choices available, and so this engine option was soon dropped. The engine and it's turbocharged variants saw widespread and much better suited use in Rover cars of the time.
Land Rover also fitted the Rover T16 engine to a special batch of Defenders built for the Italian Carabinieri, which operated an exclusively petrol-powered vehicle fleet.
