No worries m8
there are loads about at the moment just have a good look around. You can get a minter for £300 with ease just keep your eye out. I paid £350 for a mint xe complete with a A pack head from Blydenstien, box loom everything bar shafts recent rebuild as well.

your more than likly to find one for the right price,if your willing to travel,they dont come to your door mate. maybe stretch to around 100 mile either way!i can see youve been offered a couple already so its worth going to have a look!if not then be prepared to travel there always a couple on ebay etc.:)
yea maybe will have to travel. will have to keep looking :)

mine was 11miles from my doorstep mate and he had sold one the week before that aswell, its all about waiting, i mean i from ipswich so a little way away from you, but as said above if no joy locally then travel and go get it, i mean collected the engine and gearbox in my fiesta.

88k? is that all?
I am SURE it has done that! lol
Seriously, if you can find an XE with less than 120k you are doing well.

well i helped the bloke take it out of the cavalier it was in and the clocks said 88,393 . should have taken a pic.
Buy anything, rip the head off and Give it a freshen up... Most are down on power these days anyways so its silly to throw an xe into a nova without doing at least the valve stem seals, Head gasket, Water pump, Belts, Shells and bearings etc.

Mine came from a 1990 H reg calibra with only 57'000 on the clocks! It had been parked in a garage since 1998 and never driven but started regularly:eek:
I give £200 for everything under the bonnet but had to remove myself (no hardship really). I fitted a new timing belt and stuck it in;)
