Needs 2 tyres, and a replacement engine. And by the time I have enough cash to buy an engine, it will need another MOT Laughing
On the plus side (for me at least) it has had around £3000 spent on it replacing wheel bearings, suspension bits and a new AMK compressor Mr. Green

I had considered that. However, there would be too much cost involved in doing so

It was serviced elsewhere just a week before the engine let go. The garage in question used a spurious oil filter, which caused low oil pressure, resulting in a noisy bottom end

Del, I need to lift the body to replace the engine. Any pointers? Laughing
