Looks like the timewaster may have bought it , this time.

I need another rover :(

Want to get one before next week, fix it, and turn it around FAST!

I'm short of £, and go to Ireland on 2 July  ::)

Just sent a silly low offer for this one...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230143243530

Most likely snapped cambelt - new head needed.

Otherwise, stick an old G reg engine in it, and job's a goodun  [smiley=evil.gif] [smiley=evil.gif]

I could always lift another HCS engine into this one, probs wouldn't need a crane

I may be able to sell it to a young tart lady after repair....

Most likely snapped cambelt - new head needed.  

Hmm. Head gasket went then it siezed. My money's on it ran out of coolant and got cooked. Anyway, as you say, lob another K in and off you go.

And if only THIS was closer

EIGHT valves  :o Run Away....
Last time I saw an 8v K series it had an SU carb on it! Remember those? This was on a 1991 car too!

Whoooops - didn't see the bit about head gasket going - just engine seized!!
