Yeah you'll make more selling everything from the gsi than dropping a 1.2 in it 
You could sell everythin gfrom the interior/bumpers, arches, skirts, to bonnet, doors, mirros, suspension etc etc you probably make more back

Here are some pics.
My Girlfriend bought it off one of her mates at the weekend for £1200, not knowing that the engine was bust. There is loads of white smoke, which sounds like the head gasket... But also smells of oil.... I am not 100% sure what it is as I am not a mechanic and don't have the time to mess around with it... I can't really be bothered to take it to a garage. Its caused a few arguments as you could imagine.
The car itself is in very good condition. It is 10 years old so there are a few marks on it here and there. The main one is photographed. There is a little scuff on the front bumper and a mark on the rear.
I have the wrong alloys on the front at the moment as I had them lying about. The 2 original ones are in the boot.
The car has got a pioneer single CD player which will need fitting. The cam belt was changed at Reg Vardys about 6 months ago.
Any more questions give me a shout.
I am available until 5.00pm today if you want to see it and all day tomorrow and Sunday.

worth a chance putting new head gasket on
could always sell engine on for spares and drop a 2.0 16v in and keep it, good base for a project car

been meaning to ditch the green one for a while, or should i put my buckets n harnesses n cage etc in the gsi, strip it out, put the gsi interior in the grren 1 and sell it on?
think ill take the classier bits off the green 1 and sell it cheaper, keep bits like tv n ps2 etc
