Proccy. That was a beautiful post. That post deserves to be a sticky.
Hotel California indeed.
So we are rolling then? New engine? When and where.
Hat off to Joe. What a man.

What goes around comes around. It saddens me when I meet people who just take, take, take. So I feel happy when things like this happen. You've always helped other people out and now you've got the same in return  If only life was like this in general.

As of this moment in time.... the UK's only Metalic sprint blue 20vt is dead. she has lost over a liter of oil in 360 miles, oil pressure is none existant and.. yep.. you guessed it. Shes knocked.   so as it stands... Wheres the matches? its such a shame. The car has been undergoing massive wrench time, it was all perfect to go see flea Thursday. But in sods law and pure unlucky sh*t times. She has died. what a great start to 2012. it seems when ever i plan to go spa.. it goes wrong. heart broken? i think i am... do i care any more? No. So, sadly i have to say, as it stands... JBT, McMike and every one else who said i wount make it to spa.. your bloody right...but what a crap way to go out...with a knock. Erm i never said anything. Good luck with the engine swap,youll make it.

And another pm Not really, i can't stand ya Marco i had this 2 weeks before Spa 2 years ago.The death rattle. Lucky you its only a stock engine dude. Make sure you replace the oil cooler,pipework and oil filter housing+ thoroughly clean the rocker cover,turbo oil feed and return. I always disconnect the return whilst cranking for the first time so any shyte doesnt go back into your new or rebuilt engine. Good luck.

Perhaps you need a delivery driver to bring it down to Flea?
