coupe finally laid to rest.....rip...gutted!!

I borrowed it for a week fell in love with it. Bought it from my brother and have loved it ever since. Ok so had the usual new exhaust, clutch, tyres, wheel bearings, cambelts done as per service but never really had major issue with it.

Put some oil in it the other day and noticed a rattling coming from the bottom end knew it was going to die on me. Drove to stoke then had to head back to walsall and there it happened.Loss of power, rattling like a tractor no oil pressure. Few inspections and confirmed bottom end gone.

Cant say how gutted i am!!!!!

So i now have the delema. I dont have the cash to replace the engine atm. Im thinking of stripping it and use the cash plus some to buy another. Im starting a new job soon so should be able to add some funds to what ever i get for it in bits.

Still no coupe for the summer. ITs going to kill me

RIP my baby

Sorry to hear that

Makes me feel a little a little sad inside.

Me too. Sell all the bits and buy another, you can get them for 50p now

save up and go 2.4 forged - you know you want to!

Gutted for you. Well don't give in on her it's only the engine so not to bad ish???
Keep the faith.

All the best Shaun

Bad news.Stick with it if you can.

Thanks guys brings a tear to my eye.. Going to break this one and soon as I raise the funds will be back on the trail
