It is without doubt far cheaper to buy something ready done, just look at what you can get a Group A Escort for ! sometimes similar money to what the gearbox and diffs are worth !

Depends what you want really, used and abused or a fresh build, all comes down to how deep your pockets are

i could of switched engines and sold euans with my engine but would of fetched no more than 5k i dont think.

it was a shame, i went there ready to buy it cash in hand but euan thought it was only cosmetic rust but it was quite bad underneath and tbh made me realise how good my car is all round.

plus mines been super reliable except diff problems which is now sorted

i was tempted by pauls saph last week but couldnt justify 5k on top of my car for it, if i buy another will have to be a gt35 saph or escort i think.
maybe escort on here m600 bhp next year if its still for sale and funds allow it. was built by scs wasnt it ?
