The last time I spoke to them, they wanted £2K for a fire damaged 5 litre TVR engine. Yeah. Right.

Could try Glen at Autowash - he advertises in the Pistonheads Classifieds section? He oftern advertises complete cars...

I think you are wanting to know where he and the other breakers get their written off cars from....presumably an insurance auction of some type?

Must admit it would be good to know how much these cars go for...

Funny how peoples perceptions are different, Joo got one very similar to that and was seemingly quite pleased with the deal?

I mean you'd pay nearly that for BV heads, and the fire damage would only mean they needed a new set of seals?

and I thought I was the biggest Scrooge here

And you can always de-stroke it to make a proper engine... <duck>
