Anyone got a Volvo T5 engine (or car) going spare?
After mine lunched itself in Anglesey over the weekend I'm looking for a new engine or possibly a car for breaking
Long shot but you never know what people on here have lying in the garage!

I don't know what caused it at the moment as I haven't had the car back from the recovery company yet to strip down, but there was a
rattling/tapping from the cam cover as if something inside had come adrift, followed by a partial seizure, loss of oil pressure and a dumping of
oil.
I will post pics once I've stripped the head down to keep you all up to date.
