    You'll get much better money if it's in the van and running. :)




    (edit) It's on your garage floor in bits?

    If you know its good and you offer some sort of guarantee then ask £800 or more a recon costs that without tinw etc.
     
  10. I was thinking slightly less then that as i have no history of the engine, i have only done 1 journey in the bus from south wales back to stafford, it ran fine but i wouldn't really want to guarantee that it was a good un if you know what i mean

    I wouldnt want to pay much for it on that basis tbh. I would watch ebay for similar items and ask accordingly. :-
     
  12. No known history, gotta be £300. But it's worth what someone is willing to pay I guess.
