£950? am i being naive or is that a bit of a bargain (if the bid stays that low)?

pearl_rex

it wont stay that low lol id say a fair few people have their eye on that puppy!

yehreally

don\'t know the seller or the engine but, pay with paypal and get a garage to check it prior to use and it will soon be evident if it was \' running perfect prior to removal\' :Talking1 and it isn\'t then its misadvertised and paypal should refund with a garage report. Check first thou and find out who built it.
 
£950 is a steal for a 1000 mile engine if all is good..

Might be worth posting the fact you have a blown engine in the for sale section, lots of people buy a blown engine to rebuild whilst their other 1 is still running, then when the original engine blows they have a spare so you might be in luck if someone wants to buy a blown engine :)

Mate, I was in the same situation a year or so ago.

I managed to buy a good low mileage block for £500 and put it in myself. Car is still going fine now.

DR SCHNITZEL

u can sell your blown engine for 500
and your apexi for 350 - 450?
then you have rest of car to break and get more cash for

cowboy

well all i know that wrong with rhe engine is the tips gone in the front 1 the rest of the bay in perfect (was check and most was replace when first brough it)
 
think am gonna look for an engine swap.
and i couldnt buy an engine of ebay you just dont know wot wrong with it even if its check out.
