Been offered this...




Has a recon engine fitted with only 6k on the clock, but oil is getting into the plugs been told could be...
Head Gasket!
Piston Ring!
Whats car worth and any idea how much would be to fix the engine?

Been for a test drive today and drives fine just doesn't like to tick over very well.

Oiled plugs, wrong wheels, its missing bits and the boot is rusty. I wouldn't go over a grand, if I even went that far.
