Hi guys,

Posting for a friend who doesn’t understand cars. I sold him my old 2012 L320 SDV6 5 years ago and he’s been told he needs a new engine in it (prob snapped crank I guess although he doesn’t know).

He’s been quoted £12k for a new engine fitted. Car’s prob worth half that but he loves it otherwise so does anyone know any decent specialists who fit second-hand or recon engines to these cars? If so, what’s the rough cost?

He’s based in North Oxfordshire.

Any recommendations highly appreciated.

Thanks! 2014 L494 V8 s/c Autobiography Dynamic

12 grand ! Wow that sounds crazy Java black 2006

We've just done a swap with a used Jag 3.0 engine

Still not a "cheap" option, but much cheaper than £12k
