They're both difficult jobs, few hundred at least for the parts and you've either lots of hydraulic plumbing to do or a dash out to fit the electric one.

Are you changing your car? Why not find a car with the spec you want already? It won't add 200 quid the budget.

If you bought a 1.0 you would have to convert to EPS, you would need the EPS column, clutch pedal, column bracket, ECU and wiring...

I've just converted mine to EPS and it was a mission.. Dash out job..

You're looking at £100-200 of parts depending on if you want to go to the scrappy to take them out or not and about £200-300 labour to fit it.. Might as well buy one with EPS!

Why bother when vauxhall has a far superior EPS system?

You cant use the PAS setup from a 1.4/1.8 16v theres no where for the pump to mount to the engine and if you could mount it the 1bhp that the 1.0 makes would be drained by the steering.
