Scottish Elises

I have spied a very unloved rover 200 brm sat rusting outside a garage.

That car comes with a VVC engine and close ratio gearbox. I am considering having it for the engine. So do you guys know roughly what it would be worth and would the gearbox drop into an elise?

I paid £550 for a VVC a few years back, gearbox would fit fine.

I shall see what i can do.

I paid £185 for a vvc engine a couple of months back, TBH the gearbox would cost more, think the going rate for an B4BPQ box with an LSD is about £500-550.

you should b able to sell some other bits from the car on the rover forums
the rear beam if its got disc brakes are quite sourght after worth approx £100
check it still has the right gear box with the lsd its a disc with a small hole for a type b looking into the diff from the drive shaft hole

The red leather interior is also sought after and should be easy to punt on fleabay

Gos knows why as it is fecking horrible

Thinforth.... the red leather interior (assuming it's good nick) will get £200. The alloy heater controls get between £50-£100. Even the BRM badges sell.

Has it definitely got a c/r box? That wasn't standard on the BRM.... in fact, it was a very looooong 2nd gear on my old BRM (ie, 75mph). If the alloys are good nick, then they will probably sell to an existing BRM owner because mine were bubbling quite a bit...
