Dear all
I am thinking of buying either a Princess V42 or a Fairline Targa 40 between 2003 and 2006. Depending on the year, they are fitted with either the KAD series or the D series.
I would be extremely grateful if people who know those engines can comment on which engine is safer to go with.
I know the following:
KAD
Older engines, out of production, with more smoke than the D series, easiear/cheaper to overhaul, no electronics, higher consumption.
D
Newer engines, still in production, less smoke, extremely expensive to overhaul, a lot of electronics, fuel economy.
All authorized VP dealers I have had a chat with are pro the D series for some reason.
Thanking you all in advance.
