come to take out the old piston and the conrod is slopping around like a ho's kebab.
so after spending a couple of hundred quid on a fresh top end, now I find out it needs an engine rebuild, which judging by the cost of it aint gonna be happening anytime soon.

At least you found out whilst it was in the garage and not throttle pinned on a track or trail but even so i feel for you. May i suggest looking at the latest 0% credit cards. Theres some 2years of 0% around which might at least give u some breathing room!
