It is ! I sold it in December for £7,500. He's fitted a new hood & pump etc. which is quite a chunk of money - which is why I never got around to it It doesn't look like he's done anything else though. He's angling for a small profit there.

it’s bad enough that the first owner paid actual cash to have that monstrosity….

Nearly finished, just needs about £20k for an engine

I doubt anyone would bother with an expensive old cosseh engine any more would they?

Methinks there are better options these days, even if it would require chassis mods to make it work. Supercharged Duratec or something, perhaps?

"Have the windscreen, wiring etc. 90% there ready to be bolted together"

At first I read this as "90% ready" and assumed the zero exists only as a typo.

I now realise that he only has 90% of the parts that would needed to complete it.....

Do not want.

I would put £10k into a Westfield instead if it were me.

And by the usual 80/20 rule of thumb, the 10% he doesn’t have are going to be 90% of the total cost. Like that cossie engine.

If only we knew of someone with experience of putting transverse engines in the middle of cars they didn't come from

i wouldn’t waste a lawnmower engine on that horror.
