also im not trying to get up anyones nose but im a little mad at the fact that i gave the engine away for free to sloth on the understanding that he needed it and had a use for it to be honest i think its a cheek that sloth hasnt used it if i knew that he had no intention to use it himself i would not have given it away! hes proberly charged someone for it and told them he payed good money for it

also im sorry if this is against the rules but the seller proberly doesnt even know this himself but its only fair and i dont want to see someone get riped off

bottom end knocks on it quiet but constant regardless of temp eml was on constant and wouldnt let me flash it and intermitently lost power when it felt like it also i would surgest doing nearly all gaskets as it p1ssed oil from everywhere hence why i ripped it out in the first place and fitted an xe
not trying to nacker the sale but realy dont think its fair that you sell someone something as a good runner when i know otherwise and like i say i doubt you have seen it run so you wouldnt know any different

if any mods see a problem with this post i do apolagise in advance

+1, you dont sell something you were given on the intention of using, you either give it on, or give it back and just say 'look mate, Very thankful for this other but ive had a change of plan'

to be honest its kind of robbing some. it just something you just dont do

i had planned to use it, but was offered what i was led to belive was a complete 2.0 8v and box, ready to fit, in mint running cond, which turned out to be a lemon after i'd fitted it. at the time marks dad offered me some cash to take this off my hands, and i was skint so i couldn't say no. at no point did i say i'd payed for it to marks dad, but tbh thats between me and marks dad. mark was with me when i collected it from ste.

ste, apologies mate if this has annoyed you.

tristan, wtf has this got to do with you? its between me, porter and mark, there is/was no need for your comment. go troll another site. fool.

sorry claire but its not the first time he has spouted b/s towards me, about things he knows nothing about. others have noticed it too. i only give my opinion if its constructive, never to crtisize what someone is doing. anyway this is waaaaaaaaaay o.t. :)
