Oh well, if nobody wants it Bert Flood can have it back for next to nothing!

I never bothered even giving it a thought as I thought it would have been snapped up pretty quick by someone with more money than me.

Been away working, just got home, read emails. Plenty of them but no money. To answer a few questions the engine is complete as you would buy a new Rotax 912 ULS off Bert Flood or any other dealers. (Yes, it does have a gear box). When you buy a new one you have to buy the radiator, oil cooler and exhaust extra.
The engine has never been touched mechanically other than meticulously serviced. I could have told you all it had 1000hrs on it and for its age you would have believed me, but that's not the way I operate. It currently has 2394hrs on it and it is still an operating machine. I figured it would take about 50 hrs for a decent offer.
Yes, $1000 & $1500 offers are an insult. Its $18500 to bolt another one it it's place. You fellas will have to find a bit more than $4000 otherwise it can go into the container as I don't think Bert Flood gets it for that.

Sorry did not mean to be insulting you

(I think I offered $1600, well you did say you were going to give it away) but after talking to a few guys who have sold back to Bert Flood I now have the 'good oil'. Be my luck I'd buy it and then it would need the 'overhaul'.

You will likely get $4000 to $5000 for it from Floods' they will overhaul it and sell it for $15000 or there abouts.

5 grand, I'll swap you my 503 rotax approx 40 hrs TT one timber prop strike, runs sweet. I could have not mentioned the prop strike but I just dont operate that way......

Do you need outright cash, or would you sell on payment plan? Seriously!
