I would buy it for £200, can't see it being worth any more to be honest.

what a set-up! Best* mechanical diesel engine, biggest available capacity, veg ready and complete RWD set-up - perfect. Good luck with the sale, apologies I can't offer anything of value (not even an insulting offer of £200 ) *IMO, after 2yrs in a 205td

I don't see why it is an insulting offer, there was a box clutch and prop on here for £80, engines sell on eBay for £100 - £120. At least I offered something instead of the usual comment on here of "I'd have it in a minute, But" or "Bargain, you'll sell it no prob"

The engine you have shown has an ecu so is the one with the weak Lucas semi electronic pump. Won't run veg and can't be tuned like Tue Bosch pumped one I have here.. You made an offer fair enough, offers are good and I'm not insulted at any offers. What you think its worth though is irrelevant to this thread. As its just ONE persons opinion. You put in your offer that's fine. But I'm sure people can make there own minds up what its worth to them .. For what its worth this was what I was thinking... Engine as a run of the mill good replacement td engine 150 notes.. Gearbox 150 notes.. Based on the fact that I've seen these gearboxes go for nearer 250 pounds as they have the correct bellhousing to fit 1.9 gti engines or mi16 engines so good for rwd conventions often used in hillclimbing. Also used with v8 bellhousing on back of rover v8 conversions too as they are a bit stronger than the lt77.. On top of that it has a hdi flywheel sourced and fitted comes with new clutch plate front prop etc all the little bits that although not expensive certainly add time to a project to source.. that's got to be worth something? Then it comes down to what its worth to me.. 300 quid... I'm happy to listen to offers on that but I'm happy to keep it in garrage if it doesn't sell so at the end of the day thats the deal here.. I'm happy to listen to offers they won't insult me.. But please people don't fill my thread with opinions. As although its great bumps.. id like to just keep this on topic please..
