One of the estates I shoot for has one. What is it you want to know? I have no idea myself but can ask and get back to you.

They seem like decent machines and have a very good reputation as far as I'm aware.

Seem to be cheaper than a Massy of similar age or power.

Strange, but as a maritime engineer an engine with less than 10 000 hours is hardly run in!

thats a boat engine though, which is running at a reasonably constant speed, whereas a unimog or car engine is being used at all outputs.

an om352/366 generally needs a rebuild at 10000 hours.
