The V806 was re-engined from the Dart Mk525 to the Dart Mk510 whilst still with BEA to use the more powerful engines for the Argosy, which sorely needed them! Apart from the very few Hot/High airfields in the BEA network the 525 didn't bestow much benefit. The 806s still had the bigger engine when BEA went as far as Doha.
