What's the going rate for a 1275 engine these days? seen one for sale for £200, complete with gearbox etc, but hasn't been running for 4 years and isn't seized...was apparently running perfect before removal.

    Around that price unfortunately mate. When buying an engine just assume that it will need a full rebuild.

    Wahhh! £200 is cheap! Sure some people are selling them for close to twice as much as that, everyone is after 1275s atm.

    yea, thought it was a decent sorta price, may go have a look at it, would be very nice if it was good enough for a straight swap :D
    cheers guys

    Do they limit your mileage? They charge to take it away too I've heard.

    The lack of VAT can be very misleading

    It has the price with VAT right underneath it? Perhaps they could swap them.

    Maybe they could make an option when you sign on your account, you can choose to view items with only VAT prices on for customers like us.
