I am considering a project car to play with. I have over 20 years of exprience in working on Alfa Romeos and Peugeots so troubleshooting a nasty electrical problem or tearing apart transmissions and engines does not faze me a bit.
I found this 2000 SE7 for sale with overheating engine. Owner claims he replaced the gasket per land rover shop's recommendation but it still overheated and shop thinks it's just a radiator problem.
Should I be concerned with engine that has been overheated? Could that lead to premature issue down the road? If it drives fine, is that good enough?
Any other issues I should look out for? Is overheating issue typical in this model and year? typical problem? am I looking at possible new engine? Thanks.
