can it be see running?
Cause it's fairly hard to tell damage on an engine otherwise, hand turn it yourself, but i'd deffo not get it if you're not sure. You'll only be sorry.
what price may i ask? Cause if cheap avoid it also.

whats been done the engione and what details do you know about the engine?
if cheap enough rebuild it, so know its fresh. alot of people get ripped off because their sold ' good runners' that end up melting or blowing up within a month or so!
a good LET would prob fetch £800-1200 depending on what its got, history, loom, ecu, turbo etc everything except 6spd box.
if need anything im only outside chester on n.wales side
