Why didnt you go with Vetus again?
What are they like in relation to the Nanni?
It just seems that Vetus have alot of adaptations like gensets etc,
But i still for some reason couldnt get into them like the Nanni?

Price mainly - I got a very good deal from Nanni (through Fox's)
Practical reasons too:
- Previous Vetus was Peugeot based - current Vetus are Mitsubishi based. Previous engine was 50hp, wanted to trade up to at least 60hp. Strangely enough, more adaptations would have been required to fit the Vetus.
- Spoke to several Nanni owners - all were very pleased with the Nanni.
So, the Nanni came recommended, was substantially cheaper and required less work to fit.

Our new engine is on order but it's a wee bit smaller than those monsters
