Think the main concern on the other site is the fact that the car is being sold with a known misfire that has not been sorted yet. That, together with the rear shock, is a risk for a lot of people.

If it's easy to fix, why not fix it before the sale or at least get the shocks sorted (you can't just replace one)

I commented on the thread in question pointing out that you can get to the cams with dropping the engine but I also said I'd be very careful buying a car with known faults (for a while now) that have not been sorted. This may suggest people buy a car they can't repair nor sell on.

Look at it from a buyers perspective as well.

My first question would be....................why are the faults still present?
