A great engine, for sure, but that block rigidity problem is a major failing imo.

Nice one! I had one years ago, loads of fun. I'm actually going to buy an F or a TF, get the head/cambelt done as a precaution and go on a bit of a road trip next summer. The plan is to use the same amount as money as I would going on a 2 week break somewhere hot including buying the car and the trip. Will be a 4th car but i'll keep it to use on nice days after the trip but if i decide to sell due to not using it much, the loss will be fairly small.

sounds like a good plan, I can see why the cost of a garage to do the work can be very expensive as its very time consuming, but the good thing about doing it yourself is you know its been done right, no matter how I try I struggle to trust garages (I know some are honest). So good luck with getting one.Nice one! I had one years ago, loads of fun.

I wish I was mechanically minded enough to do it! I see you're in Northants too, sure you don't want to do another one? (joke).
