Not really heard any good reports on recon engines best taking your chances on a breakers yard engine if you don't want to buy a new one

The guys at Four x 4 in Leeds I use
Competent, experienced + reasonanly priced
Worth a call.. BREXIT - done properly.
Right now ...We need Government - not Politics
Save the Dipstick Flagbearer-keep it simple, less likely to fail campaign-agenda items:Starting Handles, Acetylene Lamps.
Founder: Dipsticks-R-Us Inc
D3 HSE-perfectly formed, passenger friendly...has real DIPSTICK
Jag XK-but sadly no DIPSTICK...HUGE design fault
FL2 has DIPSTICK..."real comfort in rear seats"
VW Golf wondermobile (?)..has real DIPSTICK
Morris Minor..original DIPSTICK technology..and a real KEY.

You buy a jag s type 2.7 don't you lol
See it running.
Drive it home.
And there you have an engine and auto gearbox.
And nick the engine. Strip everything off engine, like the twin turbos and fit your assessories
