depending on your date of manufacture ,ie 2002, you cannot put a after 2004 1.2 engine in as its a ball ache. ask spinksy lol
if your 1.2 is made after 2004 then you can. tbh, get a second hand lump, throw a timing belt and water pump on, new clutch and slap it back in. not worth the hassle fo...
might get away with it if your not going through insurance.

bonnet (CATCH aswell )
have the roof panel beated.
i might fit aero catches now, as even tho iv had a new catch, im still worried :S
think i'll by two new wishbones and see where it gets me. if i change them and it makes no difference, its either the subframe or the mounting points on the unibody
