the schrick helps id guess, wot sort of money did you pay for that?

without
£150-£250 is what id look at, as a buyer..
(cheap!!!),, but i'd need more info on condition though...

A 2.5 is worth 150-250 so a good 2.7 with a new cam must be worth more. except to people on here who expect to pick everything up for next to nothing of course.

Got to depend on the exact spec / condition / history and output!!!!!!!

Any chance of getting the car on a rolling road before it's split???

That should tell all you need to get a more accurate idea!!!!!

Not after one at the mo, 'cos i'm having one built - and it costs a lot more than a few hundred quid!!!!!

Dream on, a decent spec 2.7 with a dyno print out and build sheet is £750+ all day long.

I sold one without paperwork for £550 last year....
