    Always loved that car of yours Michael. One of the few MK1's I'd swap my MK2 for.

    Shame about the motor.
    Not that hard to fix really,wouldn't even have to remove the motor.

    Ummmmm..........the motor dropped a valve and put a hole in the piston and destroyed the combustion chamber.
    Unless you want to be cruising around on 3 cylinders it's ok, but the motor would need to come out to have the problem fixed.

    You obviously have never removed pistons and rods from a motor insitu.
    I suggest if you don't know how don't comment !

    Sorry Stanton, what I was trying to say was to do the job properly you would most likely need to remove the motor, I could only imagine the walls of the block being badly scored due to the broken bits trying to find a way out.

    Anyways it's still a absolute steeeeeeeeel for a rust free 2 door someone buy this.
