Head Gasket

[wadkin1]

Hi all, blew head gasket on my 95M T5, not economical to repair, now looking for another , live in Uxbridge Middx, can anyone help
Also anyone need spares etc contact me

[850t5]

Why not drop another engine in? I had a look about for a engine for my '96 t5 and found a decent secondhand engine for about £800 fitted. I also found a new engine with a 60,000 mile warranty for (sit down please) £1695 installed. The latter being pricey but I'd pay it for 60,000 miles of trouble free motoring. A new car brings new hassles....

Would not 800 quid fitted for a second hand engine make an M reg 850 T5 uneconomical to repair ?
