From Craigslist:

This is a 2007 mini cooper s with 98000 miles. The cam chain tensioner backed out of the head and caused it to jump time. Engine turns over but does not run. Possible valve damage. No other issues. 6 speed auto. Inspected until end of November. Price is negotiable.

Listed at pretty much full NADA value. I love the fact that he/she is still cranking the engine to prove it will turn over. If there is valve damage, it is actively getting worse!

Possible valve damage? Oh I'm sure it's nothing!

That will buff right out! Just need to remove the head first.

There is a guy on a local Subaru board who buys cars and parts them or picks up cars for resale.

He has a 2006 Subaru WRX STi from the US that got repo'd and wants $15.5 k for it. IT HAS NO ENGINE!!!
