Im going to start to strip it down next week anyhows so will find out what the extent is.
Well after breaking my old Ph1 172 i still have a Engine which had a bent valve so as in the near future im planning on buying another ph1 so was thinking of carrying on running it around whilst with spare engine rebuilding up forged with cams and Jenveys.

I looked at a LY one last year and was up for £5495 but was an absolute heap and said to the bloke he'd be lucky to get £4k for it.

I have owned a facelift EP3 Civic Type R in Cosmic Grey and Mini Cooper S in past 2 years but as its time to save for a House the latest car i have the Mini is needing to go and be replaced with something cheaper.
