lol i know people with XE's removed complete they cant sale! but people are considering buying that!

Why didnt they drop engine out when box removed would of been far easier? No scrap yard i know would let people remove parts from a perfectly running engine!

the car was stacked on top of another, so the engine has been dropped onto the windscreen of the car below (some ford thingy) and this has always been an unconventional scrappies
