Hi, i bet you will all have a bit of a laugh when i ask- does anyone have or know of a good 2.3 engine, they seem to like rocking horse *&^%, may buy the whole car if cheap.Obviously i also need it to have an inlet manifold-not cracked. john ::)

Hi Richard, yes you are right my wife does come from Pontypridd. We are now living back in the town she grew up in, just outside Ponty. I am getting on a bit and had enough of the fast pace of London life. Here is much slower--and people talk to you! regards, john
