and if reg cheeseman is right it, and turbo D's are that much cheaper on your side of the pond,

I've bought a fair few TD motors, never paid more than £150, even for the one at 30K with an 8 month old turbo and pump.  ;D

May I just say lovingly how much I hate you right now. In the southeastern United States an AAZ with a questionable history can easily go for $2,000 or more. Maybe I should try and move to Europe.

We'll go halves on a boat....... I'll fill it up with TD motors and point it in your direction, you take the motors out and replace them with chrome bumpers and opening quarter lights and send the boat back?
