Well thats that engine has got a knocking noise from it now

i am 95% sure its a small end or maybe the start of a piston melt down

going to take the plugs out and have a look down the bores with a little camers that a mate is bringing round tonight!
So what do i do!rebuild to a higher spec or just give up sell her for cheap and go for a 3 door?

Either way i need a loan and with the situation with vauxhall at the mo i might well be out of a job again soonish
