1.0 12v into C20LET??????

Post by bigbadboy »

Thoughts please on the above question and the countless number of problems that could come up. Also costs involved and the practicality of doing the project. I live in London/Gatwick and so, are there any local engine swappers near by?
Would just like to bear in mind the chassis has only dealt with 9k miles in 10 years! and it's ma first car, and hell no im not telling the insurers/they'll never know....lol

Then never drive near me, or try to MOT your car because they will find out and do you.

Sounds like a wind up seeing as there is just one post, but still anyone thinking to do that as above good F**King luck, MOT check the details of the car and it will obviously it wont add up, TBH I hope the jail term you'll most likely get leaves you ass raw when up premiums shoot throught the roof cos insurance aint gonna defend you.

I believe he meant removing the 1.0 and fitting the 2.0. A waste of 3 grand if you ask me.
