thankyooooooooooooooou!
bad news though, the dealership just rang and said its gonna be Â£2500 all in :ohmy:

i told them i would have to just take the car back (got my eye on an engine and found a reputable mechanic too)
but GUESS WHAT ...they 'cant put the car back together' for me to bring home

Â£550 well spent ..

Â£550??? I think they saw you coming. If they cant get it back together that might be a good thing, they have got to do something just make sure you dont pay them any more money, have you already paid the 550?

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationnot yet but will be paying when i go to get the car released. its 550 labour for them testing it apparently. they definately saw me coming, 24 year old girls first car, what can i expect!

does anyone know if there is a specific engine i should be looking for? checked and mines deff the g13bb, but would one like this do:

cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem...e=ADME:X:RTQ:GB:1123

or would this one be better? :

The engine in the link is the wrong model.
Thats a M13aa VVT, If you have a g13bb then you must have a soft top?

The seller is CAM on the link so you are pretty safe there as they are well known by most of us on here. It may be worth phoning them as they are specialist jimny breakers.
