Chat about all things Bonneville (and related cars). Off-topic stuff should be in the lounge, and all mechanical problems should be posted in the proper forum.

I recently had to replace the engine in my $2700 2000 SSEi. It only lasted a month after purchase, and as Andrew said, would of become a $500.00 car is sold complete. For $600.00 + my time and the purchase of a few tools, I did the engine job myself in my Driveway/garage. It's a little tricky, but certainly not impossible.
