The cover is missing off the Engine.

Seems a bit too good to be true IMHO.

QuoteI am intrigued by this, I mean the low mileage new gearbox and engine situation.
So I've asked the seller a question ::)

Mick ;)

The question I asked is  "how many miles has the car covered" and "What happened to the other engine"

The answer I got was err...... not conclusive really,
He said the mileage quoted is what the new engine and gearbox has covered. And he had no oil in the other engine, because he finds it difficult to see the oil warning light for medical reasons.

So why does the speedo read this mileage.

And if it's only done this mileage, why so many new parts fitted? as he says.

I've asked another question, but I'm a bit wary after this as it seems he may be suffering ill health, as he says on his listing.

Guess it's got the clocks out of the donar vehicle as well then...

I class that as fraudulant though to be honest.

Garage clear out in March 2011 and I will have a large amount of omega parts going very cheap.

As I said I asked another question

"How many miles had the car covered on the old/damaged engine and gearbox"

No answer, it's all gone very quiet ::)

It's just as bad as clocking.....changing the speedo, isn't it?   :o

In either case, he has not told the truth, as cars must have a recorded actual mileage not an engine mileage.

fair enough if he has fitted a new speedo but he should have kept the old one to prove total distance covered

What's the rest of the car going to be like if he can't be bothered to check the oil. That's the reason he's had a new/secondhand engine fitted.
You've gotta go some to be completely out of oil, as he told me in a message, unless he lost it out of the sump somehow.

Yes one to avoid, I wonder why he's had no bids ::)
