I agree. Although if I am honest I don't think it will sell to an enthusiast, more than likely someone just wanting a cheap car.

I have been running the car for the last month now, at a reduced performance, but that issue is resolved and so far everything seems ok.

The original engine issue was main bearing failure, probably down to lack of maintenance.

The second engine was a duff engine.

The third engine is solid, but had had the timing belts incorrectly fitted.

I don't see why the car couldn't now run for miles and miles, especially with a little tlc.

If it wasn't for the fact I am selling the TF, I'd be keeping this. But as I am getting rid of my pride and joy I need to replace with a other pride and joy.
