No, I am not a masochist, I do have my reasons!
Ideally a used, late model (emissions compliant) 190bhp lump, possibly removed following a Honda/Audi conversion. Not looking for anything specialised or uprated, but must be a working unit.
Thanks
Returning to the Mid Engined Series, Steve?
If so, good luck, & look forward to seeing you again
Mines still sitting at maidstones, complete engine gearbox, carbon air box new exhaust system, 190 upgrade etc, havent put it up for sale yet but will sell for right price

Hiya
Possibly - although with a stock 190 wouldn’t be too exciting. I’m thinking of doing the 750 again - they’re doing 30 minute races this year. In principle they would accept giving me an exemption to stay in Class B with a VHPD engine provided it’s unmodified!
VHPD? Emissions compliant? Could be interested, depends on condition, age etc. Have you a price in mind?
there is one in the classifieds section of Pistonheads - in the Parts >> Engines section.
Not sure it’s exactly what you’re after but thought I’d point it out.

Deposit 10000 Swiss Francs in my offshore account
Not sure I’m that desperate for my McDonalds awards yet. Watched my 993RS dissappear into the sunset today and the funds are safely deposited in my account.
I’ll be arranging to pick my Exige up from Cadena next week, looking for a Navara or L200 (tax reasons) as a tow vehicle right now. Failing that will just buy an old discovery or a 5-series BMW (touring)
Happy Days… will have to get myself booked in for Donny now.

Excellent, thank you… I’ll sleep better at night now. (had best stop yabbering on now lest I get told I’m taking the thread off topic)
What’s the going rate for one of these engines anyway as I’m tempted to buy a spare myself - might even end up racing if I carry on like this.
Now you’ve got to earn those stars ‘newbie’!
I will… where do I start?
1st may at brands

put a passenger seat in that new car of yours and give us all a go
Hi Stephen,
Tom’s link to Pistonheads caused me to go through the rest of the engines listed there, just in case somebody was flogging a Radical V8 for a fiver or anything. No luck with that, but did see this, which appears to fit your requirements perfectly:

I think that’s the one that was discussed somewhere else on this forum as being sold too cheap (�1750)… didn’t the guy say he could have subsequently sold it 10 times over but he just wanted a quick sale at the time.
Also… where are you in SE1 Mike, I used to live there.
Mike, Houlbt - thanks for the comments - I’m talking to them. I’ll get there in the end …

Ah, glad you were here to point that out then! Sorry Stephen…

Tanner Street, just off Tower Bridge Road near all the antiques places. You?
I know… yes, I used to live in Shand St just off Tooley St. But now I’m the other side of London - Pimlico.
