You're in Cumbria? Hmm.

How about meeting by the A66 next time I head across to Woodsport? I'd love to see this!

I think it was from a corolla along with the gearbox.

The 2.2 D4D engine from the Avensis is a lovely engine. Quite punchy too.

180bhp and nearly 280lb/ft iirc and 45mpg in the Avensis.

/Looks at Mk2 with bust engine sitting there.

Much are these engines and boxes retailing at?
