For a good F20 i would pay no more than £120 if the box looks good and dry dont bother but i can tell ya want piece of mind so change all the gaskets and seals cos its obviously easier to do out the car. Get a haynes and take ya time. All it will cost ya is ya tiime and a few sheckles for the gakets.
