Best place to source a duratec
Just wondering what peoples thoughts are.
I will be looking to get a Duratec soon. I know you can get Zetecs quite cheap brand spanking new. but duratec i expect are much more?
What is the story with the Duratec - I will be leaving it standard so is it best to get a second hand high milage one and run it until it dies? Or
invest in a low milage/new one and try not to kill it?
What ya reckon?

Hi
I sourced a new one from Ford power products. At the time it worked out £1300 ish delivered on a pallet. A lot of money but you get what you pay
for!!!.
It came less the inlet and exhaust manifold, flywheel etc and water pump pulley. So basically it was a base engine.
There are obviously second hand one out there but the cheap one are few and far between and in my eye are cheap for a reason....
Good luck in finding what you want.

Local breakers would be my first port of call followed by the online parts suppliers through the mailing lists such as carsparefinder.co.uk etc
