Hi Paul,
I guess from the lack of replies that there aren't too many brand new engines still out there now Have you checked Rimmers ? You could also save a search on ebay, Gumtree, etc. - you never know what might appear at some point. Worth remembering that the automatic (CVT) models of Rover 25 & 45, along with the MGF 1.8 and MG TF 135, all used the 1.8 engine, so you might just be lucky and find someone breaking a low mileage one of these, as a good alternative if you don't find anything brand new. Good luck

If I remember correctly, I saw in MG Enthusiasts a company selling re conditioned K series block.

Don't think Rimmer's have any more complete new engines, but companies like this exist https://www.freelanderspecialist.com...itioned-engine and ship worldwide.
Just for fun I tried their (Microsoft's) Swedish translation service - waste of time but to get back to English I had to clip the USA flag icon! Thankfully the language used on the site is proper English. Regards |

You can still get a remanufacured one from Ivor Searle:
https://www.ivorsearle.co.uk/Products-Services/Engines I have bought engines and cylinderheads from them in the past and although they're not the cheapest, you will end up with a top quality product. |
