Jackie's heart is broken.. can anyone help pls

Well yesterday whilst on my way back from Hemel Jackie(my beloved fronty) ended up leaving me strandedabout a milefrom J15 on the M25 anti clockwise.

She blew her engine and shot a few bits and bobs right throungh the engine block, :oh yer:

I really do not want to get rid of her as she has been so reliable and up to now totally problem free, so I guess what I'm saying is does anyone know of a reliable place where I could get her a replacement engine and give her a new
lease on life as I sorely would hate to see her go alternativly if she has to go and anyone is interested she is/was a 2.3 diesel intercooler limited edition Nautyliss, she is very clean for her age and looks great when washed or all muddy.

I would appreciate any help I can with regards to getting her back on the road again. I have also considered doing a 2.8 conversion on her if that is at all
possible but as I know little about these kinds of things I could once again do with a bit of advice regarding this matter.

Thanks for taking the time to look at this posting and hope to hear from someone soon.

Regards
Rui

Sorry to hear that, but this looks ok

Cheap enough and I reckon palleted up a courier will charge around £50

Thanks for the help Drift! called the bloke this morning not to sure though sounds a bit .....

hi mate and welcome, will you be doing the work yourself.

sean

go for a 2.8.....

or email billy.m.c. he was selling his 2.3 fronty. Has done a load of work on his engine, just needs the sump putting on..

zebadee is selling his 2.0ltr sport, i know the car and it's sound, infact i helped him do the head gasket

It is with the greatest of sadness that I have to let Jackie go now :cry:

as I can not afford to fix her and am looking for someone who wants to have her for spares or a project, she is a 2.3d intercooler on an M plate, other than the engine having gone due to what I have been told was the oil pump that broke and a slightly bumped o/s/f/f she is in fine condition and would be ideal for someone looking for spares or a bit of a project.

All other bits on her are near enough imaculate the interior other than the door cards which are not bad but could do with some tlc, she also has electric windows all round and all the other usual bits and pieces that come with her. All offers will be considered no matter what as it would be a shame to see her just go to waste on a scrap heap and just get crushed eventually. I would strip her and sell on the spares but as I dont have anywhere to keep her this is near enough not an option so I have to let her go as a whole.

Please note that as mentioned previously she is a non runner and will have to be towed or trailered away. I am based in Feltham near Heathrow airport, should anyone be interested please do not hesitate to contact me on here or on my mob.************she unfortunatly has to go within the next week so any and I mean any offers will be considered(reasonable ones though).

Thanks
