A friend of mine is selling another friend's ex Rover VVC engine.
The engine was a great runner when last run and it was owned by two meticulous owners (an ex-Rover employee and my friend). Before the car was scrapped my friend had splashed out on a new cambelt kit (2 belts and tensioners) in addition to having the water pump changed at the same time. This was done around a year ago. During my friend's short spell at owning it he covered around 4,000 miles with near no issues (the clutch cable snapped, so he got the garage to change the cambelts at the same time the cable was changed).
When I drove the car the engine pulled very well and the gearbox was a very slick affair.
The deal includes the engine, ancillaries, gearbox, ECU and wiring loom.
As for why the car was scrapped, despite being a minter no amount of pulling would get the rear end straight again. As a result it was broken up for spares (a shame as it was a very tidy Rover Coupe).
The Price? £250ono. The engine combination is located in Saltely, just north of Birmingham .
I cannot really show you many pics, but hopefully photos of the car will give an impression of how the engine and car were cared for:
