My megane might be stripped if it doesnt sell, and has a 1.6 16v engine, wont be for another months time though Im afraid. I'll post on coupe-club if you want and ask for one? Will be hard to get it under £200 though if you ask me...

800 pound haha...

Cambelt snapped has probs only bent a valve.. Ent the hardest thing in the world to get a new Valve and rebed them..

i woulda say it would cost anywhere near 800 lol

Head skimmed with new Cambelt.. and replace the bent valve or whateva valve damage. cant be that much.. my mates RS turbo has just had the cambelt go onit. bendin all the valves.. its cost him 80 to fix it. but he did do the work himself.

Exactly, the labour that garages throw on top is ridiculous, and when my cambelt went it did every single valve - the engine I have in the megane now is a newer one than the car as after the work it just had more and more problems so I replaced the lot

Id never pay Garage charges. sod that.. i used to.. But Forget that for a tale now..

Sit it on my drive under a Canopy and sorted ... Work on it my self!!

Re bedin valves ent hard.. Just gotta have them lil things u need to re bed them. time consuming more than anythink!!

Good luck which ever you choose to do!

But eitha way if ur changin the engine id still take the head off first see whats its actually done to the engine.. then ur half way there to which eva route u take
