with current prices of Omega's it will prob be cheaper to buy a working example, and break!

Prob means you can get a free engine!

Buy a car for £500, strip it and get at least £500 in bits.

Would an engine from an auto go straight into a manual car?

No spigot bearing, so make sure you use the original one

I'm from Berkshire (SL6), had a look on Google but it would be good to know some recomended trusted breakers.

Do you have the contact details for the one in Ashford, i'm willing to travel for the right engine @ the right price!

Thanks
