bad bad news dude :/

the ddealership would be getting a right earful off me about now and a nice big bill for a new engine.

**Tumble** · 02-10-2003, 11:12 PM

That's not very clever is it? methinks a new engine might be less expensive than a new car. What you want is a nice dirty great big Diesel. That'll get yer money's worth

**[GSV]Trig** · 02-10-2003, 11:22 PM

Well XE's are around £200-£500 depending on there state, Cav GSi's can be got for anywhere upto £2500...

I've got £800-£1k to spend so we'll see...

**XTR** · 03-10-2003, 12:06 AM

just get a new engine. otherwise you might lose out when trying to sell ya cav gsi without an engine?

+ your cav gsi looks pretty smart! nice clean car!

Oh mate......thats a rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbishty thing. Those engines get rarer and rarer...dont bin it, someone will want it for the block, crank etc. The engine management and stuff too......

Its the Ultimate Motorsport engine.....its the 90's version of a BDA.

Im gutted.....not just for you m8, but for the world of GSi's , cos there aint many anyway, and every year, one or two bite the dust

Sad day.

I live near QED I'll give them a tinkle and see if they have any runners, the only down point in this is they tune the damned things so I mite end up with a lot less money and a bit more power

**[GSV]Myocardial** · 03-10-2003, 11:37 AM

You know your gonna end up getting it tuned aswell m8

You'll have to give me a proper drive round next time I'm up for a lan

**[GSV]Trig** · 03-10-2003, 01:02 PM

Just gettin it on the road is the priority atm m8, If I end up buying another Cav then this one will get stripped down to bare shell and rebuilt bit by bit when money allows...

**[GSV]Trig** · 03-10-2003, 03:42 PM

Found 2 cars with engines in them, a White Cav GSi in Hull for £695 or an early Calibra with 17" FSE and a few other bits also for £695, both of them are runners and have rent/mot on them, could run them and repair mine, or break it to fix mine...

**Nemeliza** · 03-10-2003, 04:52 PM

Run and repair is the quickest option. didnt u need the use of ur Kar asap

**[GSV]Trig** · 03-10-2003, 05:10 PM

Aye thats the idea, white cally or white cav, callys 35 miles away cavs 100.... :S

**Tumble** · 03-10-2003, 05:24 PM

calibra... hmm nice. what sort of condition is it in?

**XTR** · 03-10-2003, 06:05 PM

i like calibra's! what's the 17inch wheels like?

**[GSV]Trig** · 03-10-2003, 06:51 PM

And this is the Cav
http://pictures.autotrader.co.uk/ATD...ia?id=46735869

I'd rather have the Cav obviously as then I can take bits off 1 for the other...

**XTR** · 03-10-2003, 06:58 PM

Both look very nice. I bet ya pretty fed up lately

**[GSV]Myocardial** · 03-10-2003, 08:44 PM

not sure bout those bonnet vents on the cav m8 ??

What those wheel worth second hand like ?? and is it coming with the 4 fitted + 2 extra ?

I personally prefer the calli shape but can see where ya coming from with having spares etc
