you dont need to rebuild the head for gasket failure
about £350 to for garage to fix it langey, or £1500 for an XE

and when you have an accident in that, you're going to be asked to bend over...
it's not like you can swap the engine over if there is a crash.
you get caught, then expect your insurance to be rocketting to the planet pluto (in which case it isn't really a planet. scientists have proven it to be an asteroid.)
