Thanks for the welcome folks
just phoned about a 2L sport in bargain pages but was allready sold
I'll get there!
Probably not the right section to ask this but any one have any views on the early 2L or 2.2L petrol engines strengths/weaknesses which is best?

Interesting news about the "New" Nivas good old ones are V Hard to find now!

Hi bud and welcome to the family of FOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Old 2.0ltr C20ne engine's were bullet proof and they were clearence heads so if cambelt snaps you dont normaly do to much damage. The 2.2 however has the tendency to blow head gaskets quite offten!
Hope this helps bud.

Bobster.

Welcome Aikido, I understand Niva's are back - on sale in the south east but in LHD only. Was tempted by one years ago - more able than a green oval due in part to the front and rear diff locks!
