I recently posted that I am selling my Europa XS kit.
A gentleman contacted me about his fire-wall-forward for the Europa. He 
suffered a fuel exhaustion problem and flipped the plane upon his forced 
landing. He is selling the engine and instruments which are located 35 
miles from my house. We have discussed selling them together. Here is 
his email to me.  My original post is below.

Don,
Pleasure speaking with you this morning... I have everything from my 
Europa
firewall forward except for the prop... I have a 914 turbo that really 
made
my bird cream right along and never was effected by density altitude. I
also have all lights, flap motor, fuel pumps, battery, elt and basic VRF
instruments, VOR, 695 GPS, interior lights and so forth...My 
registration
as a glider self launch, tri gear could be used by the buyer as well
according to my mechanic. Making it a no medical required bird. I can
prepare a better lists of instruments and details for you later...

I just was hoping it might be easier for you to sell your kit with my 
parts
as a complete package for the buyer.The plane is with my mechanic Wayne 
of
Southland Rotax in French Valley.

My email is jag@bajainsider.com and my US number that rings in my office 
in
Cabo is (702) 953-8756.

Feel free to contact me or pass my contact information on to any
prospective buyer and I'll do the same if I can find anyone interested 
in
building one...I really loved my bird and flew 13 states and 2 countries 
in
less than 2 years of use...

Good luck on the sale and have a great day, James

My orignal post...

I have decided to sell my Europa XS kit. It is the fast build with a 
tri-gear conversion kit. The wings are finished and the cockpit module 
is finished and ready to bond in place. The ailerons, flaps, rudder and 
elevator are fiberglassed from the factory. The cockpit module is 
configured for the tri-gear conversion, but can be restored to the 
original mono-wheel setup.  
All workmanship is excellent with photo log.
Located in Southern California.
Asking $12000.
