Default Brand spanking new RS500 engine

Rebuild or brand new? Still await a reply from seller.

Ford Sierra RS500 engine

Price: ~£8.375
Seems brand new if you ask me. Even only this engine without a bodyshell is an investment which I would store in the living room.

It's not a production run rs500 engine but a ford replacement, not sure if that effect future value as engine number wouldn't tie in with a particular car
