mine was i dunno, 2001 maybe? fresh rebuild in the 3door, think i may have still been running it in. went to start it but it just turned over, didnt start.
got out to check under the bonnet and the oil filter had blew and was oil everywhere.
presuming it was a faulty filter i went n got a new one and a load more oil and it did it again!
