Cheers

Heh Simon,
Courier booked. Collection from me this Wednesday for delivery to you Friday by truck with tail lift and pump truck. Engine is now both securely fixed to pallet and also shrink wrapped, just in case it is also fully insured should the worse happen.
I'll text you pictures as it is collected.
Cheers

Hi Simon, I'm off a few days this week and next, I'd prefer to be there when the courier collects so it looks likely to be collection from me next week for delivery to you Friday. Still to book the courier which should be done tomorrow and I'll message you back confirmation.
Back in touch tomorrow
Cheers

Heh Simon
I have your payment received. On Monday I will speak to a courier, any day best suited for you to book off, and how much notice do you need. To get a specified day it is probably going to be a next day service so.
Cheers

Heh Simon, I have emailed you half a dozen or so pictures of engine palletised and ready to go, thought you'd appreciate seeing everything in order. Sending you my bank details too.
Cheers

Hi Simon
It wasn't 24 hour, economy 3-4 days, as you are taking a day off work I will arrange a delivery for a specific day to suit you.
Payment by bank transfer if you please.
I will come back to you with potential courier arrangements shortly
Cheers

Hey Simon, I can arrange delivery of the engine, palletised and on a vehicle with tail lift and pump truck to you included in the asking price. Sorry I haven't been in touch earlier. To be honest I keep finding something else to do trying to put off the inevitable, I so love this engine I'm having a hard time parting with it.
Cheers

Argh, lost the last 4 days laying a patio. Back to my office now I will get that shipping quote.

I'll get onto my laptop in the morning for the email Simon, I can arrange delivery, the engine is securely and safely palletised using a courier this could get to you easily, rather that than travelling with it in the boot of the car, of course you are welcome to collect it. I could take the full asking £1750 and include delivery by insured courier. If you'll excuse me I've got a 5am start tomorrow, I'll get you the email in the morning. Would you give me your postcode to let me get costs for delivery and see what I might do with the price

I'm not sure of the colour of the car, Jabba built it around 2008, I think it was a chap called "Kevin". I'll look out the email tomorrow for you Simon. I believe it has the ECU included mapped and ready to go. It ran on track with the wick turned down, 280bhp, to maintain reliability, Jabba had it mapped to 315bhp, the huge power and reliability attributed to a massive intercooler, this isn't included but I know it's easy to get another made Jabba might even be able to do exactly the same one again. I'd love to see it go to someone who wants it. Price, it comes with a cast iron provenance, great power and specification Simon, I'm not keen on taking a lower bid to be honest, but there is no harm in having a gaggle.
Cheers

I certainly did, saw it run in a track Corrado with great success, very reliably too. The owner changed to 1.8T power and I jumped at the chance to own this setup, but no I never got the opportunity to run it my Corrado has been stored away now for a few years.
The engine was originally built by a member of Jabbasport as his daily and I spoke with him to confirm the specification before I purchased it. I'm sure I kept the emails too which I can forward to you if you want to give me your email address?
Cheers

Heh, you want it I still have it. Never got round to pushing the sale, it's now on a pallet ready to go. If you're interested I also have a re-worked 1.8 16v on carbs!!
