Start with a price you would be really happy with, and then I'm sure everyone will try to knock it down to about £100...

Sorry I meant there is no difference between the T-5 T-5R and the 850 R engines.Some people say that the rods are stronger in the 850 r manual engines but have no actual prof of this.

You can get an engine for around £300 but then there is the price of getting it fitted.

No worries Flake let me know what price you have in mind for the seats and door cards and possible the whole dash.

I can also remove the items if you would like.
