Well I just put in new ac,tyres,brakes,exhaust,track rod ends,ball joints,was driving superbly then the engine blew.
Do I put a different engine in or sell it for parts?
I love that car.
Any ideas for a replacement engine cost?
Any advice gratefully recieved.

Carlt has a 16vt for sale at the moment close to 1k ~(the whole car).

Do you know why your engine exploded ?

Sorry bin away.
Fiat just informed me it was totalled,not especially technical of them.
The RAC thought a balance rod (?I know nothing)had come through the engine block,very loud rattling sound,all oil leaked out,still starts and can limp along.
So I don't really know.

Engine is here in Stourbridge in the West Midlands, although delivery is no problem.

Can can be seen driven and tested and checked to any extent, it runs simply superb for one of these and does have history to support.

If you are actually interested, best to call on 07749 069 057 as questions go on forever usually that can all be answered in 5 mins.

As a guide price, you dont usually get any change from £1500 when buying and fitting one of these. Hence why so many get "thrown away" when they die. \:D
