dubberjim 0 Posted November 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Have had one off ebay and turned out to be a dog. Lucky I got my money back from ebay so am ideal after one in a doner car. Although one which I could hear running would be ok as I have collected most bits I need now.

anna 0 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 there are some good ones on there i have known people to buy a complete car from ebay rear ended etc for a good price for conversions.you should check out edition38 and mk2vr6.com Link to post Share on other sites
golfgirlvr6 0 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 i have the whole car, only being broken as my diff blew out the gear box and cant be bothered to fix it as i got a new car! I was screwed over last year when i bought an engine which was ceased, when i stripped the bottom end nothing had been done up at all and the shims had locked themselves. I never got my money back. The engine i then bought was from a specialist. There isnt much on ebay at the mo. When i looked before they all want silly money for them, and they still do now! Link to post Share on other sites
