That looks like a factory Bosch and its on an "N" plate so probably is
totally standard, still got the anti tamper cap on the max fuel by the looks of it too
And Kim, we all know why there are a lot of diablo cars for sale

If its been changed they have done a bloody neat job of the wiring!
As dan says........although it seems to just be a lottery as to what pump/turbo the car has, they seemed to just find things lying around in the factory and fit them in a "meh.......that'll do" sort of way!

Not so much a lottery, it's just when the car was registered.... Numberplate doesn't mean when the car was made, it's the date of first registration... Could have sat in an import place for 2 years until it was finally bought, hence no first registration...
Hence why you see the odd R plated phase 1, and the odd V plated phase 2...
Which is why motorfactors are fecking useless at supplying parts!

Not a thirsty petrol though.... Diesels that will run on fermented horse piss fetch good money these days....

Lets be honest, not many people are going to be keen to pay much for a car after hearing you spank it down as a french pile of crap for half an hour...
And as Ruan said, theres a pretty good market at the moment for old mech pumped diesels...with fuel etc...
