It will maybe need a rebuild within 6 months which could cost you £3000+

Be very cautious.

Hi Dave,

Please have a look at this area to help you

It is possable that the car will run around for another couple of years if it\'s looked after, i.e. warm it up nicely and don\'t let it overheat etc

You really need to know if the car starts instantly cold or hot before comminting though.

Hope this helps
