Broken gti6, update/help?

[Tom]

how many miles is the engine on?

cause if its around 100k dont bother just taking the head off
lift the engine and box out as it will probably need a clutch too this will make the job so much easyer

It's on 128,000'ish some were around that. I will strip it down see what damage is and update, but have a feeling I won't be repairing it as can see it costing to much

Then why did you buy it? :/
