As per title, still currently fitted to a 1993 carlton, I have no reason to believe that it's not the original engine fitted to the car.
Starts and runs fine although it does have an occasional hiccup/misfire. I think this is almost certainly electrical as it's not there all the time.
Not sure on miles but I can find out.
Engine is still fitted to the car in case anyone wants to hear it run but I can remove within about a weeks notice. Could also pallet up for shipping for approx £70 extra. Located in Sussex but could move to Surrey/Hants borders.
I'm after £200 for the engine, there is also an auto box that will be up for grabs but I'm not sure what to price it at?

Too expensive or just no demand for them?

Not a huge demand for them, they don't tend to go wrong very often and they're not a common choice for conversions as most people would go XE. Still worth something to the right person but I'd be starting at £50 on ebay to be perfectly honest. As far as I'm aware the autobox is virtually worthless too, sadly. It's a shame, the 8 valves are great engines, very underrated!

I agree with Spineynorman. Last 8valve I bought was £100 and it had had some work done...better valves etc. Anywhere between £50-£75 is about right for these engines. Theres no demand for them in RWD form. If converting to FWD theres a fair bit of work involved finding bits.

And replied Dan.
Thanks for the advice guys - open to offers really. I was basing the price on advice from the previous owner who said he had banger racers offering £150 to £200 for it although I have put it on some banger pages and no takers........
