If its an option i would suggest brokering with a dealer your 200 to get a good price and go to the cheapest supplier for the new ones Seamark nunns in Trimley St Martin Suffolk would be good for the brokerage

Pete, when I had my new Etec fitted part of the deal i struck with the dealer that supplied and fitted the Etec was to stick my old engine on a standin their workshop for one week while I listed it on eBay.

They also agreed to run it on muffs for the winning bidder to check it.

If the winning bidder wanted the engine rigged they could also have done that for him.

I sold a 1996 engine albeit in good condition with unknown hours for £1800 via ebay. I doubt a dealer would have offered me half that on a trade in.

I reckon you'd get around £3k for that if you advertised it right.

Pete how old is the engine? Is it an Etec, DI or a Ficht

Chris

[PeteSmith]

Its a Ficht, and its a 2003 engine...

Jono Garton will take it off your hands at a fair price I'm sure
