if you can put a 1.4 in and afford the insurance, do that...

.... or if you can't afford the insurance on a 1.4 get a 1.2. Not that great a leap in terms of insurance and you can pick them up for like ?20!

But 10bhp increase in power with the carb 1.2.
Bin the 1L.
Drop in an SR engine if you can pay the insurance.It is quite a big jump in terms of power, 45bhp of 1L to around 70bhp of either a 1.4SR or 1.3SR engine. Shouldn't cost that much more for insurance.

There was a SR being given away before it was scrapped (Bodywork wasn't very good) Sure it's on NL's Cars for sale or Parts for sale section - It was only a day or two ago that I saw it so it can't be too far away.
