Engine blew up unfortunately. I'm not clued up on these things but the garage who had looked after it for 10 years said something about big ends and dropped liners. Gearbox needed replacing too.
Hence why I was thinking of buying a new engine and to try and turn it into a track car, but that would have cost thousands. If I had a driveway I'd have probably kept it forever.
Someone also backed into it and damaged the boot floorpan while I was on holiday and then I believe someone tried to break in and caused the drivers window to smash. Gutted it ended like this, but there's only so long I could have kept it going.
