GTi-Engine rebuild-How much?
Trouble is, it has done over 200.000 miles with no service history. Seems genuine mileage. Seems to go OK and not smokey. Bit of an oil leak around the bit that the oil filter attaches to.
Question is…………………when it goes bang, which I am sure it will sooner than later, how much will it cost to rebuild it and how much would it cost to get someone who 'knows what they are doing' to do it!
Thanks

maybe valve guides and recut valve seats skim the head
main bearings and big end shells
reshim the tappets
new cam belt
maybe new water pump
check the oil pump
and new gaskets
wil cost a bit
