OK I'm in contemplative mode tonight[&:]
Guys thinking tonight, the biggest deterent from buying some of the current 968s on offer is the high mileage, with this in mind what would be the approx costs of say a full engine rebuild, a top end job and lastly a gearbox job ?
What other parts may need consideration.
The method behind my thinking is I've been re-evaluating the high mileage (130,000mls) left hooker on the autotrader site which is near as dammit 8K probably less with some bartering. I could buy this and still keep the MG for the time being so it would give me time to fettle and ensure its right for day to day use. Best case is its a peach and it costs me next to nothing worst case the gearbox is shot and it uses a gallon of oil to every ten of petrol.
Anyone got some rough figures ?
Cheers
