Reason for engine rebuild was it threw a piston, and was burning quite a bit of oil, I decided to do the whole thing.

Trust me guys, it's sound as a pound and mechanically solid.
I just decided to go the whole hog on the rebuild, knowing I would be selling on I wanted whoever owns next gets a solid car.
I could of needed get full specs from akan Jeffery as they have done most of the works.
I've had remaps done by martin Jeffery, simon (jollygreen) who has sadly passed away now.
Gents there is nothing bogus about my cat mist of the receipts for work carried out are available.
Im not technically minded at all, I don't really know what's what only what I've heard alan Jeffery talk about.
Apart from power station Alan had undertaken all my other conversions.
Phew!!!

I wasn't doubting you, but dependingg on where/how/why it failed it might not have just been the engine that was the issue.
But it sounds like you had the exact same issues as my pistons on my 2.1 and it will have all been rectified now by engine tuner as they will have used a different sort of pistons that aren't prone to this type of failure!
Good luck with the sale, I hope this puts peoples mind at ease
