ive been driving it round the estate shhhh!
its all up together it only knocks on the bottom end when the oils hot and you rev it off load on the run down
not a loud knock.
I may put a set of shells in and send it for MOT just for shits and giggles which will get a todo list which will decide its fate
so the plan is ATM (could change as still fluid)
remove sump inspect bottom end for damage and measure up
also reading through the history is interesting
