Thousands spent in last couple of years, new head about 5000 miles ago. New octopus etc etc. Now engine problem, thought to be a cracked block. Enough's enough! I'm not spending any more. MOT recently expired. Take it away ASAP before it regrettably gets stripped and scrapped. Located Dorking.

Very tempting, but a VERY long way from me

Assuming it don't run, would need to be trailored or recovered

I have a spare autobox, but not engine

I'm curious as to what problems a cracked block causes - any more details? I think this is quite a rare occurance as the head normally gives first.

I have a good spare low mileage (approx. 73K IIRC) 1.9 N/A XUD engine but nothing to put it into

So Ken, if you or anyone needs one
