Looking for a BIS engine. Head gasket failure has led to a suspected cracked block.

Thanks
Rob

We all should be happy - IT MEANS OUR CARS HAS MORE VALUE EVERY DAY.
I think it makes no sense to complain. We want to see more of these 126, we want them to be more popular, more people to be interested - it is natural prices shoot up will follow...

Won it for 81 squid! I think it is a bargain considering a pressure test and head skim at my local garage is £70. Been watching a few 126's on ebay. Very surprised at the level of interest and the prices they are going for. Thanks again for the link. Hopefully my car will be on the road by 1st March.

Ps. Roofrack recommendations?
