Needs a very brave buyer I think!
I disagree, that's a bargain for someone. Schrick cams and dlc followers and a new head gasket - call it 7k supplied and fitted, that's a 14k mcoupe read to enjoy!

EDIT: OK having watched the videos and read the first page (sorry :roll: ) yeah that sucks a bit, shame the bottom end needs some love too. I still reckon a 2nd hand engine supplied and fitted would be circa 7k. Yes that's then an issue in terms of sorting all the known things (Vanos rod bearings etc) but I still think that's a bargain for someone to buy and sit on and slowly accumulate parts etc for an engine swap.

Or.... Someone could do what I've always desperately wanted to and bang an s65 in there!

Either way, really sorry to read of your misfortune, hope to see you back in a nice sports car soon!

Costs will be significantly less in this case Ed, bought by someone who fixes Zeds for a living so parts, at trade prices, and their time is going to add up to a very cheap ///M the end of the day.
