im going to be gettin a engine conversion within the next 6 months and i dealy i want a red top put into my corsa b. but i have just been offered a brand spankin new 2litre 8valve calibra engine. when i saw brand new it has been garaged since it was made and has only done litterally 100 miles. its coming from my mates dad so i know hes not ripping me off. well anyway hes offered it to me for £500, i jsut to know if i should take this off of him in stead of gettin a red top.
