Mb is the best 10v, if you want a 20v buy a 20v! It's horses for courses tbh , rarely seen a decent conversion

OK, get an MB, fit a centre diff lock and then drop a 20V engine in it!!!

or get an RR, fit a centre diff lock and ditch the cats!

i'll still go with my original choice.

but if i had to choose between WR, MB and RR as standard, i'd go RR (but only just). that 20V engine would sway me to overlook its short comings.
