It was a direct-start diesel, and I think it was a version of the same engine used in the US MD, as I recall. I don't even think it had glow plugs.

Regardless, I don't understand is why could they make it direct-start in the UK, but not do the same thing to the M and MD in the USA? Patent problems? Different fuel? There wasn't a direct-start diesel in the USA that didn't require glow plugs until the 806, 15 years after the MD.

There was a B450D.
