How much fo a complete ABF engie?

[Phil.]

What would be a reasonable price to pay for a complete ABF engine? £200, £300, £400??

Seen one recently on egay for £350 but it's not even complete.

With the price of mk3 16v cars so low, why dont you buy a complete car and sell the bits that you dont need.

I sadly haven't got the time or space to dick about with stripping and flogging another car.

£4-600 for a good condition complete engine/loom/ecu

Bet that was stevens breakers. Mofos, charge an arm and a leg for anything.

Get to know your local scrappy as well as you can. Yesterday: complete ABF, including alternator, PAS pump, etc, cable change box, ECU, loom and clocks. Spent about two hours getting it out.
Took the headlamps too. And a steering wheel. And three rolls of armoured cable. And probably some other stuff. Cost me sixty quid. [LOL]

Bargain!

I got a complete mk4 2.0 16v passat estate with an ABF in it for £300 (means i can do complete 5 stud conversion with 288mm brakes too!), and looks like im gonna get all my money back by flogging bits off it [:)]

Best way to do it.

Im currently about to do the same with an E30 beemer lol.
