wasnt there one with 100+ bhp a couple of years ago? cost a fortune


iirc that was a 1.2 8v engine and it was rubbish.

Insurance wouldnt stay low as you would have to declare your engine swop. Being that if you dont. We are the ones that pay the extra and its cunts like that who make our insurance premiums fucking sky high



see your point but its cunts than claim whiplash and a broken leg from scuffing there bumper that makes it so high
