Just wondering really. Had a look around and low mileage 200 block engines seem to be going for over £4k and Escos wheels silly money now! Mines a 4x4

Best bet is to get a full list of parts up mate, someone up to date with current prices will put a price next to everything for you

I was thinking of doing this but is it only optional to gold members?

I think there's a few engines on eBay now for £3500 which seems more realistic. I'd panic if I ever needed an engine for mine at that price. Used to get a running engine for £1500 back in the day

I can remember seeing rough Saphs for 3.5k. Sold my mint one with loads of spares for 4.5k. Good to see them being appreciated for more than a Sierra but nightmare when it comes to buying something.

I remember my mate paying £6500 for a minter and thinking he was crazy spending that sort of money, now there going for double. That was only 6 years ago
