for ?100 the first thing i'd say would be to make sure that the shell is sound enough to take the engine. welding etc

and a big stamp :P

Um, best bet is to buy all the chassis or engine bay mods/weld the whole engine bay and that. Cus going from a 1.2L to a XE would be alot.

But good luck, and I want to do the same to my saloon in the near future...

should be a good project mate as if your goin to do an xe you can remove any rusdt etc from arround the engine bay while you are at it.
