As the primary powerplant for the Austin FX4D during the 1970s, it spent decades navigating the congested streets of London, idling for hours and covering hundreds of thousands of miles with ease. Beyond the taxi rank, it was the reliable choice for the Leyland Sherpa and a staple of the British waterways in its Thornycroft 154 marine form. This miniature pays homage to the slow-revving, high-torque heart of the British commercial fleet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003eEngineering \u0026amp; Craftsmanship\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\"\u003eIndustrial Grade Build:\u003c\/b\u003e Laser-cut from premium \u003cb data-index-in-node=\"47\" data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\"\u003e304 Stainless Steel\u003c\/b\u003e.
