Admittedly the engine isn't ''rare'' and certainly not worth paying £1200+ for (imo), but other than pricing it higher than current market rate and stretching the truth, I fail to see why that warrants going out of your way to waste his time!
I'm always on the look out for new cars and constantly see 172's & 182's that are way overpriced, but I've got far better things to do with my time, than contact sellers either wasting their time asking stupid questions, or telling them why their car is worth £1000 less than they're asking.
My point is, I doubt anyone in this thread (Knuckles) was looking for or needed a 182 engine, so the fact there's someone asking silly money for one, really doesn't affect them!...
Makes him a stupid as the seller IMO.
