Need new engine... not happy...

[Keefo]

Ok, well, i lost.... my car went in for a service, came out, was ok for a little while then the engine seized due to them not filling the oil... but, i lost as i had to prove they didnt etc and all kinds of crap and now i have to fix the thing myself out of my own pocket...

To be honest im raging and if i se one of them from the garage i will commit a murder..lmao

So, now i gotta look at finding a 1.8 16V mk4 engine for my 1998 S-reg astra..

Anyone got any idea of cost of engine, fitting etc?? im really not looking forward to this... specialy seen as im skint and need my car asap...

i found this guy on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=140233082242 who says he will supply the engine, a new clutch (my clutch was on its way out) and fit for £500...

Hes about 2 hour away from me tho so would have a gd tow getting it down there.... oh and finding £500 ... :( :( :(
