R.i.p My Engine :-(

[Trislander]

Well to say I'm mortified would be an understatement I've just spent £600 getting my mark 2 1.9 tdi back on the road so it can be a taxi again and on the way to the taxi test centre the bottom end has gone so I now need a new engine. I've literally spent my last penny getting it fit for purpose and this happens. :-(

Right....does anybody know where I can get a 1.9 tdi 115 bhp engine from that's in decent condition and cheap as chips it's for an x reg mark 2

Try gumtree for an MOT failure, buy, swap the engines and strip the parts of the rest of it to stick on ebay. Shell for scrap. Mind you, you'll need a driveway while you strip it. Have a look a couple of threads back on here too, I think someone had one they were selling spares off.
