Does it run - is it still in a car?

When you say low oil pressure - how low?

Second hand engines are a hard sell at the best of times, when they're TVR engines it just gets harder. Personally I always assume that any engine I buy needs rebuilding and have very rarely been surprised!

If you're saying that it really needs a refresh (or a rebuild) then I should advertise it for £1k but be prepared to take less.

If you're confident that it's good inside it might be more profitable to break it as potential buyers can see what they're getting.

I got just over 2k when i broke mine down and sold in bits, plus it helped a lot of other owners out rather than just ending up a spare on someones garage floor.

Trade it in with Andy for a 4.7 version.
Probably only cost £5,000 if you're a Wheeler Dealer wink
