- how on earth did I not notice that there was LESS than 0.5L of oil left in the entire engine!!!!!!!!!!!

Can anyone guess the damage?
It's only a guess,but i would say MASSIVE damage!! The lack of oil would mean that the oil pump would be picking up "air" & as the main bearings,valve gear & any other metal to metal parts require an oil film to protect them,they would all show signs of damage/wear!! I'm not taking the p155,but don't spend too much this Christmas,you'll be needing every penny to sort this one!!
