Hey everyone, thanks for reading.
I've found a 709d horsebox i'd like to buy and convert into a motorhome, but the key challenge i'm facing is the emissions and trying to meet the Euro 6 - I live in London and hope to stay, albeit in my 709d! Can anyone point me in the direction of a suitable engine/gearbox replacement, registered post 2015, that will fit ? I'm trying to contact the service centres to ask but i'm struggling this weekend. The dream was to go fully electric and use the HV batteries, stepdown to 12/24v for the living but I might let the technology acclerate(!) a little and come down in price over the next few years before I do that. Any pointers very much appreciated, cheers Alastair
