........for 4k, its the yellow FD.

Proabably got less than 10k left on the engine but never mind, now just gotta find the money.  Checked doen the back of the sofa but that only got me £1.20.  Any donations greatfully accepted.......only joking. :p

still got the engine from your TII,  you could make some pennies that way?
400 BHP - 650 KG\'s = 616 BHP Per Ton of Rotary Power

That\'s the way to do it! :Thumbsup!

Still got the engine, the **** has not given me anymore cash yet, but don\'t think i could sell it for 4k.

This is the most i\'ve posted in months!!

Thats good news Graham,

I remember when i sold my Escort Cosworth i asked the buyer to offer me first refusal if he sells it, that was 2yrs ago and he still loves it so no chance at the mo. Great thing about buying your old car back is that you know the car and how it drives as well as the bad points so no suprises.

£4K without rebuild ? might still be good for like 12K yet so no immediate panic, think you said 55K so not written in stone that the rebuild is iminent  ;)  Else its a £7k car.

With the amount of miles i do a year the rebuild won\'t be needed for about 3 years if it lasts another 10 - 12k, so plently of time to save.  But then again you never know with a rotary so its a game of rotary roulette.

If you do get it, dont go trashing the front bumper too much this time!!  ;)

Go for it, especially at that price  :3gears-rh

Buy it back and come to some meets! Who wants to drive a Focus to events next year eh! ;)
Cheers
