Does any one know what the engine range is in the older FFRR and what engines they are, ie BMW, Jag etc

The BMW mate

Cheers Doc, fancy seeing you on here, i take it the TD6 is the straight six as fitted to the P38 RR then

Td6 up to 2007 model year = BMW 3.0 litre turbocharged diesel inline 6 (P38 was fitted with 2.5)
V8 up to 2006 model year = BMW 4.4 litre petrol V8

V8 from 2006 model year = Jaguar derived 4.4 litre petrol V8
Supercharged from 2006 model year = Jaguar derived 4.2 litre supercharged petrol V8
TDV8 from 2007 model year = PSA/Ford derived 3.6 litre turbocharged diesel V8

Cheers Martin the 2.5 was lacking a bit in the umph department

4.4V8i (up to 2006 MY)and TD6 are BMW engines
4.4V8i after 2006 and 4.2S/C are Jaguar Engines
3.6TDv8 is a developement of the PSA/Ford TDv6 and is not used in any other PAG /PSA vehicles, they are LR speciifc (at present!) The TDv6 is also used in the new Citroen C6 and big Pugs as well as S type and XJTDvi Jags but they have twin turbos and different lubrication systems suited to on road use whereas the versions for LR use a different lub system and only one turbo to suit offroad requirements

Oops Martin beat me to it!
And from personal experience of running a TD6 for 2 years - it's a wheezy old cart horse of an engine compared to the TDv6. It rattles and wheezes in a way most unlike the same engine in the X5 too.
