right i might get rid of the G engine and stick a tdi in her
bishoprado posted a topic in Engine Bay
This might be one of the worst ideas ive eva had but hey worth a shot. You may have seen my G60 for sale, well one of the reasons i wanna sell is running costs, the G60 is one thirsty little bugger. So i was thinking of taking the engine out and everything that is not required and replace it with a nice tdi engine. So my question is how much wud a full service history g60 motor be worth, the charger is in gud nick, and was serviced 9k ago by jabba to stage 4. also what work is involved to put a tdi in the bay, cos ive only ever seen this done once to a rado. cheers -
Gotta say guys, you really need to see the rocker cover in person to fully see how good of a standard andy's polishing is!!! He's spent alot of time perfecting the art of polishing and spent numerous sad lonely nights in his shed... :D He's in the process of polishing some other wheels for one of our mates, who's car will most deffo be a future feature car in the nxt few months.
