some rover L series engines only have 3 glow plugs(4 one was blanked off), so even if that 4 one is faulty the car should still start

No, the L series is a pretty decent engine, as far as mechanically injected diesels go.

I preffered the K series in my 416i but I think for the risk of it not blowing up it's worth it
