75bhp is alot underpowerd concidering the 1.2 is 70bhp
but thankfully the one im after is the 100bhp and with a remap from custom code (at nearly £500) cn push that up to about 125/30 with a 15-20% increace in torque best get saving my pennies

but thinkin about that 100bhp standard for a 1.4 is pretty decent i cant think of any other (N/A 1.4liter Car) with 100 or above bhp
apart from the chocolate headgasket rover200/mg zr which was 103bhp i belive

mg iznt owed by BMW
it was taken over by them in 1994 but came back to british ownership in 2000
its now owend by some chinise company

i have a friend who is a mechanic and the number of MGZRs/200 he gets is unreal
no wonder they went bankrupt,

and they do have chocolate headgaskets
the MGZR had slightly stronger ones, made of paper....
