I don't think a lot of people even know how an engine works on here, they'd probably have to phone the AA if they got a flat tyre too.

TBH thats pretty average price for what that its!!

Ive been doing STRC rallying for nearly 5 years now, and theres at least 3 MK2 with XEs in them competeing.

One of the guys that we know had his built, again a MK2 with an XE full of trick bits. It cost him near 40K to build!

I want one desperately and have done for years but I think i'd rather build/commission the work on a good shell/car rather than pay the same for something that's already been completed and used in anger by someone else.

That would be funds allowing of course.

Which they don't.

There's only one engine which should be in that car and building one properly would probably be as much as that car

I just like cars with the right engine, always bugs me when an engine from another manufacturer is stuffed in because it's cheaper.
